What place didn't get the black death?
The largest area where the Black Death did not hit was parts of what are now Poland, Belarus, and the Ukraine. There was an area around Milan where the Black Death did not strike. It also did not get into the Pyrenees much. I have read that there were a number of towns where the Black Death did not hit in other places, including a large walled town in England where the gates were closed and the drawbridge raised, with the town treating the situation as though they were under siege. Unfortunately I cannot cite a source on this, as it was a long time ago that I read it. There is a link below to an animated map showing the spread of the Black Death in Europe.
