Palazzo Mansi houses the Museo Nazionale di Lucca's pinacoteca (painting gallery) within lavishly decorated 17th-century salons. The ornate rooms — with original silk wall coverings, frescoed ceilings, and gilded furniture — are as much the attraction as the art collection itself.
The Mansi were one of Lucca's leading noble families. The palace was remodeled in the late 17th century with the Baroque interiors seen today. It became a national museum in 1977.
