Piazza Barberini is a large piazza situated on the Quirinal Hill. It was created in the 16th century but many of the surrounding buildings have subsequently been rebuilt. The current appellation was given in 1625 when it was named after the Palazzo Barberini, the substantial Baroque palace built in an elevated position on the south side of the piazza for the Barberini. At the centre of the piazza is the Fontana del Tritone or Triton Fountain (1642) sculpted by Bernini. In the square Barberini-Fontana di Trevi Metro A Station is also located.
