Monte Catini, a watering-place of Italy, by rail 30 miles NW. of Florence and 19 E. of Lucca. Its mineral springs are saline, range between 82° and 86° F., and are efficacious for abdominal complaints, scrofula, and dysentery. The season lasts from May to September. Near here the Florentines were defeated by the Pisans in 1315.
