This medieval walled village in Tuscany's Garfagnana valley, Castiglione di Garfagnana sits above the river Esarulo and holds an unusual number of churches for its size. Listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia — Italy's register of its most beautiful villages — it is also home to the Filarmonica Alpina, a brass band founded in 1858. The surrounding region is close to mountain terrain and ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
