Project Description
Piazza Campo de’ Fiori
Campo de’ Fiori is the place where capital executions used to take place: in fact, in 1600, the philosopher and Dominican friar, Giordano Bruno, was burned alive here because he was accused of heresy. In 1888, a bronze statue was erected in his memory on the exact spot of the fire.
Today, the square is home to a vivacious and picturesque market, which comes alive in the mornings and is probably the most beautiful one in the centre of Rome. The atmosphere changes completely in the evenings when Campo de’ Fiori becomes one of the favourite spots for Italian and foreign young people thanks to the multitude of pubs and restaurants that can be found there.
