Literally meaning Victory Square, this enormous piazza came into its own in the 1930s with the erection of a huge triumphal arch in memory of WWI victims. If you look up close, amongst the various bas-reliefs, on the western side, you’ll see Mussolini among the soldiers. Sloping behind the arch, in clever garden art, are the three ships of Columbus known as the caravelle. With its austere fascist period architecture the piazza is now home to a much needed underground car park and is the departure point for many national and international coaches. Being one of the biggest open spaces in the city it also often used as a concert or meeting space.
