    The Plazza Garibaldi with its monument is also commonly called Piazza Grande. Today's Piazza Garibaldi was already the forum of Parma in ancient Roman times. Many of the houses that line the square today date from between the 13th and 16th centuries. The Palazzo del Governatore was built in the 13th century as the palace of the Capitano del Popolo, the people's governor.

      Central square in the old town. This is where social life comes together.

        Piazza Garibaldi is the result of successive phases of evolution where the main forms of municipal power have gradually established themselves in this point of the city.

        At the beginning of the thirteenth century, the Palazzo Vecchio defined the south side together with the Palazzo Comunale, later the Palazzo dei Mercanti, now Palazzo del Governatore, caused an extension to the north.
        The arrangement of the north side in neoclassical style reinforces the uneven character of the space.
        Today the square, with its outdoor tables, the nearby pedestrian streets, the elegant shops, is the real living room of the Parmesan people.

        Center of city life and crossroads of the city's crossroads.
