Piazzetta


A Karen Brown Recommendation

Venice, Veneto, Italy
Recenter Map To This Location

The Piazzetta is a wide square opening onto the Grand Canal. The square’s nickname used to be the Piazzetta Il Broglio (Intrigue) because in days of yore, only nobles were allowed in the square between 10 am and noon, at which time the area buzzed with plots of intrigue. Adorning the center of the square are two granite columns, one topped by the Lion of St. Mark and the other by a statue of St. Theodore.
