Founded in 1333 by the future Emperor Charles IV of Bohemia (from whom the name Mons Charoli derives), the town served as a fortress protecting Lucca against Florentine and Pisan forces. The historical center preserves the Cerruglio Fortress with its 14th-century keep, the Santa Barbara and Apparition towers, and three historical gates (Porta Fiorentina, Porticciola, and Porta Nuova). Highlights include the 14th-century Collegiate Church of Sant'Andrea and the Teatro dei Rassicurati, an 18th-century theater known as one of the smallest historic theaters in Europe, frequented by composer Giacomo Puccini. World-famous for its food and wine heritage, Montecarlo lies along the Lucca Wine and Olive Oil Route, producing acclaimed Montecarlo DOC wines.
