Tito Square

Tito Square is the main plaza in Koper surrounded by notable buildings including the 15th-century Praetorian Palace, the Cathedral of the Assumption, Loggia Palace, and Armory. The structures display Venetian Gothic architecture with characteristic features like crenellated arcades and ornate facades.

The square was first documented in 1268 as Plathea Communis, reflecting its role as a public gathering space. Over centuries it underwent several name changes before becoming Tito Square in 1956.

The square functions as Koper's main gathering place where residents and visitors move through centuries of layered identity. The space reflects how the city maintains its Mediterranean character in daily life.

The square lies at the center of Koper and serves as a main junction where routes converge, making it easy to reach nearby cafes and shops. The open ground is walkable and offers plenty of spots to sit and observe daily activity.

The Praetorian Palace on the square is known for its crenellated loggias and an integrated statue of Justice in its facade. This artwork represents the city's historical connection to Venetian legal traditions and shows the craftsmanship of that era.
