Campo de' Fiori
Campo de' Fiori is located in the heart of the Centro Storico next
to the Piazza Farnese and a short walk from the Piazza Navona. No
churches, no palaces, no obelisks, but life and death. Julius Caesar
was murdered in a subsidiary building of the Roman senate near the
square. Campo de' fioriis a lively piazza where a flower and vegetable
market. In the center rises the monument to Giordano Bruno, who
was burned at the stake for heresy in the piazza in 1600 and his
statue now stands at its centre.
