Piazza Tasso is the city's elegant salon, the true landmark and meeting place. The square opens onto one of the three valleys that surrounded the town and offers an extraordinary view of the gorge crossed by the road leading to Marina Piccola.

Today's appearance of the square is markedly different from the original one. As is the name itself. It was once called Largo del Castello, after the name of the 15th-century Aragonese residence.

The urban redevelopment of the city and the demolition of the castle in 1843, as well as those of the defensive curtain wall and the entrance gate, changed the image of the square.

Piazza Tasso is famous for the tufa statue of St Antonino, the city's patron saint, who took refuge here following the Lombard invasions. The statue was placed above the old portal. Today it stands on a pillar in the centre of the square.

With the birth of the modern and present-day square, the name was also changed, a tribute to the poet Torquato Tasso, who was born here in 1544 and whose history is also recognised by a statue dedicated to him in the square.

Among the most important sites in the square are the Casa Correale with its majolica courtyard (south side) and the Art Nouveau-style Hotel Vittoria (north side).
