What to do and see in Montecatini Terme, Tuscany: The Best Things to do Good for Kids

November 26, 2021 Christa Meece

The largest and most famous of Tuscany’s spa towns, Montecatini Terme has been revered for its curative waters since at least the 16th century, when the first baths were built here. Two centuries later, neighborhood royalty began to take note after the opening of the town’s first grand spas, putting Montecatini Terme firmly on the aristocracy's radar. Beyond the array of fine spas featuring treatments old and new, today’s visitors come for the shopping, dining and sporting offerings, as well.

We stayed at the Grand Plaza Hotel and this fountain was the view from our window. We enjoyed sitting in the Piazza del Popolo people watching and listening to a street musician.

It must see, you can see the fountains in the winter, the drinking water areas and actual swimming are closed in the winter. Great area to relax, walk and have a pic nic, free to walk around and $10 to swim during the summer at specific spring.
