It is one of the largest squares in Florence and the heart of the city since Roman times. At the center of the square is the Column of Abundance, the navel of the city, symbol of the meeting point of the main streets of the ancient Roman city, the Cardo and the Decumanus. The square still hosts some of the most sought-after shops and clubs in Florence, such as the "Giubbe Rosse", a meeting place, since time immemorial, of men of letters and intellectuals.
The area now occupied by Piazza della Signoria has always been very important for the city. During the Middle Ages, a baptistery, an early Christian basilica and, where Palazzo Vecchio stands today, a building used as a prison were built in the area. In the 10th century, as large towers were erected throughout the city, the old buildings were either demolished to recover their stones or incorporated into new constructions. In the area of Piazza della Signoria, the Palazzo dei Priori was built near the towers of the Ghibelline Uberti family. Today, in the splendid Piazza, it is possible to admire, in addition to Palazzo della Signoria, numerous statues linked to the most important events in the city of Florence;
It is the oldest and most famous of the bridges in Florence. It crosses the Arno at its narrowest point and in this area, already in the 1st century, the Romans had built a wooden bridge. In 1565 the architect Giorgio Vasari, by order of Cosimo I, built the "Vasari Corridor". The marvelous Corridor, built in just five months, is an elevated structure, about a kilometer long, which connects Palazzo Vecchio, the political center of the city with Palazzo Pitti, at the time the residence of the Medici, passing through the Uffizi Gallery, the Lungarno Archibusieri, the shops on the eastern side of the Ponte Vecchio and going around the top of the Mannelli tower.
