Piazza dei Signori - a photo on Flickriver

Piazza dei Signori

            Left: Casa della Pièta, a simple Renaissance building. On the face of the building there is a curious bas-relief with a seated woman who holds a flag in her hand, upon which it is written Fide et Charitate in aeternum non deficiam. The woman represents Verona resting safe in the shadow of the Serenissima Republic, who is protecting her.

Center: Loggia del Consiglio – one of the square’s most magnificent buildings. It was built in 1476 by Fra Giocondo and is a masterpiece of the Venetian Renaissance and
unique in Verona. The beautiful façade with its columned double windows and statues on the roof shine through the pastel colours
of the walls even more impressively. The statues of Alberto da Milano imitate famous Italians who are thought to have been born
in Verona: Gaius Valerius Catullus, Pliny the Elder, Aemilius Macer, Marcus Vitruvius Pollio and Cornelius Nepos.

Right: The Palazzo del Podestà, also called Palazzo del Governo, once the seat of power of the Scaliger family.

Monument to Dante is in the middle of the square.
