Explore Rimini’s civic and social center to find ancient palaces, stylish monuments and lively markets and bars.

Admire the splendid architecture of the Piazza Cavour and relax with the locals in the many cafés, bars and restaurants in this busy square. Shop for souvenirs at the regular markets or discover a local festival or exhibition in Rimini’s social hub. 

The oldest building on the Piazza Cavour dates back to the 13th century, though it wasn’t until the 1500s that the square began to take its current shape. As well as the stunning architecture of the palaces and monuments, the square is known for being one of the city’s best places to come for an evening drink or meal.Stroll around during the daytime and take in some of Rimini’s most historic buildings. See the simple façades of the three main palaces on the northwestern side of the square. Palazzo dell’Arengo is the oldest of these, dating back to 1204, while the more modern Palazzo Garampi is office to the city’s mayor. 

You won’t miss the attractive Pigna Fountain in the middle of the square, which dates back to 1543. Look for the sculpture of a pine cone at the top of the fountain. Nearby, see the imposing statue of Pope Paul V, his right arm raised high into the air. 

Take a walk around the cool white interior of the Antica Pescheria (Old Fish Market). Browse the souvenirs displayed on the long marble slabs that were once used to present the daily catch. Return to the area in the evening to enjoy a drink at some of Rimini’s most popular nightspots. Sit on the marble slabs and chat with the locals or explore nearby side streets to find a romantic place for dinner. 

The square hosts classical concerts and other events during the summer months. Explore the twice-weekly markets or visit the regular art exhibitions held in the Salone dell’Arengo. 

The Piazza Cavour is located in central Rimini. Several buses and trains stop nearby, or take the pleasant walk from the city’s other main square, Piazza Tre Martiri.
