Workation in Pistoia: the essentials
About 30 km north-west of Florence, at the foot of the Apennines, Pistoia is a medieval provincial capital and a good deal quieter than its famous neighbour. The cathedral square with its striped baptistery and the Ospedale del Ceppo with its glazed terracotta frieze are the main sights, and the city was Italian Capital of Culture in 2017. Outside the walls the economy is unusually green, since the plant nurseries here are known across Europe. Each July the Pistoia Blues festival takes over the Piazza del Duomo. Regional trains link the city to Florence and Lucca, and Florence airport is about 30 km away.
