La storia
Che cosa stai guardando
Piazza del Campo is a distinct civic square within Siena's historic urban fabric. UNESCO records the city's development around the Campo and its meeting of three hills and principal streets; a UNESCO evaluation documents the late-12th-century union of two market sectors into one semicircular public space. Municipal cultural records describe the square as a setting for civic and religious events, festivities, games, and carriere, including the Palio. The square is within the Historic Centre of Siena World Heritage property, not a separately inscribed UNESCO site. Current Palio arrangements and practical access require an official, date-specific check.
A civic square central to Siena's historic urban composition, documented as a late-12th-century unification of two market sectors into a single public space.
