The Loggia della Mercanzia is located in Siena at the back of the Piazza del Campo in the so-called Croce del Travaglio.
The loggia consists of three arches on richly decorated columns, the ends of which support tabernacles with statues.
The two statues on the outer pillars of the loggia represent Saints Peter and Paul and are by Vecchietta (1458-1462); The other three statues represent three of the city's four ancient patron saints. Source: Wikipedia.it

Hiking

The Loggia is located at the intersection of three of Siena's largest streets: the Banci di Sopra, the Banchi di Sotto (which was also a branch of the important Via Francigena that used to run through the city), and the Via di Citta. Most tourists entering the city passed by it at least once. It was built in the first half of the 15th century, and the upper floor was added in the 17th century. The Loggia was built on the back of the merchant's building that faced out onto Il Campo.
