The backdrop of Theater Square is the Old Stock Exchange, built in 1806 by the architect Antonio Molari. Its front was built in the style of a Doric temple front with a portico. On the square in front of the stock exchange, Piazza della Borsa, the statue of Emperor Leopold I stands on a pillar and, like other Habsburgs, participated in the upswing of the city. Today, in the building of the Old Stock Exchange, there is the Triestinian Chamber of Commerce.

Piazza della Borsa is one of the most elegant squares in Trieste – a place that reflects the city's economic rise in the 18th and 19th centuries. Often referred to as the city's "second living room," it is located right next to Piazza Unità d'Italia and marks the transition to the modern city center.

🕰️ Historical Background
Originally "Piazza della Dogana" – named after the customs building, later replaced by Palazzo Tergesteo

Namesake: The neoclassical Palazzo della Borsa Vecchia, built in 1806 by Antonio Mollari, served as the headquarters of the commercial exchange
