Description
The square is found at the end of Via Po, it is rectangular in shape and has similar-looking palazzi on three sides of the piazza and the fourth looks onto the river Po.
The square was designed and built between 1825 and 1830 where the 17th century Porta di Po by Guarini once stood.
The square stands out for one main reason: it is one of the largest European 'terra battuta' squares, (this means there is no paving or cobblestones).
Although the buildings seem to be on the same level but this is not actually the case the road actually descends down to the river.
