The square is the center of the city with the 12th-century Broletto Town Hall, the Torre del Popolo (City Tower) and the Romanesque Duomo Vecchio. There is also the new cathedral from the Mannerist period, the transitional period between the Renaissance and the Baroque.

Formerly Piazza Duomo, the square contains both the Broletto and the new and old Cathedrals, also known as the Rotunda due to its shape.
