What To Expect

Piazza della Repubblica

Piazza della Repubblica, in the heart of Florence, is one of the city’s most vibrant and historic squares. With origins dating back to Roman times, the square was once the political and commercial center of ancient Florentia. In the 19th century, it was completely renovated during the city’s urban redevelopment, acquiring the elegant and spacious style we see today. Surrounded by historic cafés like the famous Caffè Gilli and Caffè Paszkowski, Piazza della Repubblica is a popular meeting point for locals and visitors alike. The iconic Arch of Triumph and the colorful carousel add charm to the square, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing break or to enjoy Florence's lively atmosphere. Surrounded by boutiques, restaurants, and street artists, the square is a perfect starting point for exploring the historic center and its rich culture.
