According to legend, even Napoleon was so captivated by Lucca that he proposed to the Senate that the city surrender to avoid the destruction of its walls. His sister Elisa Bonaparte also fell in love with Lucca, and Napoleon (to keep) the peace in the family named her Princess of Lucca, but it didn't work. Over the centuries, his sister Elisa was one of the least-loved figures among the people of Lucca, who were accustomed to being a free people, while Napoleon's wife became one of the most beloved figures in the Duchy of Parma.
