Description

The square, opened by the Pio di Sassuolo family in the sixteenth century, owes its current layout to the construction of the clock tower, commissioned by Francesco II d’Este in 1676, and to the renovation of the façade, reduced to units at the behest by Francesco III d’Este in the second half of the 18th century.
