Piazza Navona
Monumental ConstructionDescription
Piazza Navona is a monumental construction in Italy, Europe.
Piazza Navona preserves the elongated outline of the ancient Stadium of Domitian within a celebrated Baroque square. Its fountains and church façades illustrate how Rome repeatedly transformed earlier urban structures into new monumental spaces. The timeline highlights the seventeenth-century Baroque transformation of the square. Its elongated plan derives from the much older first-century CE Stadium of Domitian beneath the surrounding urban fabric.
