Piazza Mercantile is one of the most famous and historic squares in the city of Bari.
Built in medieval times, it immediately acquired its social, political and economic significance.
Located in the heart of the ancient village of Bari (the famous Bari Vecchia), Piazza Mercantile still enjoys a considerable turnout of young people, families and tourists today.
It is surrounded by buildings that have marked the history of the old city, such as the Palazzo del Sedile dei nobili (dating back to the 16th century) and various historical attractions such as the Pigna fountain (also known as the 4 faces) and, above all , the column of Justice (baptized by the people of Bari as the infamous column).
