Piazza del Campo
Bedste tid at besøge
Late afternoon during the horse races offers an electrifying atmosphere, but early mornings provide peace for photos and quiet walks.
Budgettips
Access to the square is free, but visiting the nearby museum or climbing the tower requires a ticket; consider combined tickets for savings. Attend on non-race days to avoid premium prices and crowds.

Om
Hurtige fakta: A unique shell-shaped square hosts the famous Palio horse race twice each summer, attracting tens of thousands of spectators. Its red brick pavement radiates from the towering Palazzo Pubblico, creating a dramatic visual impact.
Højdepunkter: Every July and August, the entire square is decorated with colorful painted banners representing Siena's neighborhoods, turning the space into a vibrant urban rainbow. A subtle incline leads down to a central drain, designed to prevent flooding during heavy rains – an overlooked marvel of medieval engineering.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes for cobblestone walking and potential crowds during event days.
- Capture the best photos from the top of the Torre del Mangia for panoramic views.
- Avoid weekends outside of event times when local tourists crowd the square.
- Try to visit during the Palio to see the colorful banners and intense excitement live.
