This square used to be the political and commercial center of Piacenza. It owes its name to two masterpieces by Francesco Mochi (1580-1654), the Baroque equestrian statues** of Dukes Alexander and Ranuccio I Farnese. The gigantic structure that towers above the square is the Gotico**, the former town hall.

This is the magnificent Piazza Cavalli: it represents the fulcrum of the city of Piacenza; previously it was called "Piazza Grande", its name was changed after the arrangement of the two equestrian monuments.
