Piazzetta degli Ortaggi

TIME : 2016/2/18 21:18:20

Don't miss pretty this beautiful bijou square with its laid-back cafe life and striking, life-size sculpture of three blindfolded men, Giro di Sole (Around the Sun; 1996) by contemporary Pistoia artist Roberto Barni (b 1939). In the 18th century the market square, adjoining Piazza della Sala and once home to a brothel, was the entrance to Pistoia's Jewish ghetto.
