The clock turned back in Bagni di Lucca yesterday 15th September 2012 as the US Army came to town. Everyone joined in the day and the star spangled banner hung proud from the buildings and bridges next to the Italian flag.
The history of the liberation of this area is well documented. With the last german defences at the Gothic line just down the valley at Borgo a Monzano.
A recent film The Miracle of Santana was filmed and based on a true incident in the area.
