Facts and practical information

Piazza della Repubblica is one of the largest and undoubtedly among the most characteristic squares in Livorno. In fact it forms a bridge between the city center and the nineteenth-century neighborhoods that sprang up beyond the perimeter of the Fosso Reale, so much so that it is identified by some as the widest bridge in Europe.

A number of important streets, such as Via Grande, Via Garibaldi, and Via de Larderel, which in the 19th century represented the city's main thoroughfare, converge here. The square also constitutes a perspective telescope toward the Fortezza Nuova and the Venezia Nuova district, with suggestive views of the Fosso Reale.
