Piazza del Campo - details and images

At the heart of Siena is the Piazza del Campo, famous for its shell-shape, and still the focus of city life.

Within the square in the Fonte Gaia, a fountain unique in its quadrangular form and beautiful figures around the edges. The original by Jacopo della Quercia is now in Santa Maria della Scala, but a copy by Tito Sarrocchi gives an accurate account of this remarkable water feature for the visitors today.
