The Matteotti Square
The aspect of the square as it is today, is due to the urban projects promoted by Girolamo Riario, who became lord of the town in 1474.
The square was reconstructed and better shaped, and was devoted to the town market area. Together with Caduti della Libertà square and Gramsci square, which surround it, the Matteotti square has since made up the commercial centre of the town.
Girolamo Riario built the Signoria Palace (today known as Sersanti Palace) on the east side of the square, and it is regarded as one of the most beautiful buildings of the Renaissance in the region. The west side of the square is completely occupied by the elegant facade of the Town Hall.
