    Piazza Matteotti or Piazza San Giacomo or "Plàzze San Jacum", as it is popularly called, is the oldest in the city after Piazza della Libertà. In the thirteenth century, with the growth of the city population, it became necessary to build the second circle of walls: in the center of the area thus enclosed, a square called "Mercatonuovo", "Merciàtgnùf" remained, because it was used, precisely, as home to the new city market. Square in shape, the square is surrounded by ancient houses, some of which have three-light or single-light windows, but also remains of fourteenth-sixteenth century frescoes on the facade. On the mezzanine, towards the Church of San Giacomo, there is a column of 1487, surmounted by a statue of the Madonna and Child, and a fountain, built in 1532 on a project by Giovanni da Udine.

      Udine is truly a gem. And in this square you can savor the true Friulan spirit.
