    The square most loved by the people of Cuneo is the meeting point between the "old" city and the new nineteenth-century city. With the demolition of the mighty walls wanted by Napoleon in 1801, the urban fabric can finally expand towards the south and we start thinking about a new large square. Initially drawn in less imposing forms, the square took on its present appearance thanks to the vision of the mayor Carlo Brunet and to the project of Benedetto Brunati, approved in the autumn of 1832. However, it will be necessary to wait more than fifty years to see the end of this business. The elegant symmetry given by the neoclassical facades and the breathtaking view of the Alps make the square welcoming despite the over 23,000m2 of surface area. Initially called piazza Nizza, from 1860 it was named after Vittorio Emanuele II and finally – from 21 May 1945 – after Duccio Galimberti, who lived in Palazzo Osasco, now the seat of the Casa Galimberti Museum. The statue in the center of the square is the work of the sculptor Giuseppe Dini and depicts Giuseppe Barbaroux, an illustrious jurist from Cuneo and ambassador.

      Central square of Cuneo, surrounded by beautiful neoclassical buildings, and opening onto the main artery of the historic center. Not to be missed.
