Piazza Napoleone, located in the heart of Lucca, Italy, is one of the city's most significant and expansive squares. Often referred to as "Piazza Grande," it was originally laid out in the early 19th century by Elisa Bonaparte Baciocchi, Napoleon's sister, during her rule over Lucca. The square is surrounded by historic buildings, including the Palazzo Ducale, which served as the residence of the Dukes of Lucca.
