Piazzale della Pace, Public square and garden in Parma, Italy.

Piazzale della Pace extends beside the Palazzo della Pilotta, featuring large green lawns and wide paved areas for public gatherings.

The square emerged from the destruction caused by aerial bombings in 1944, which destroyed the Reinach Theater and the neoclassical Ducal Palace.

Two stone steles display poems by Attilio Bertolucci dedicated to Joan of Arc and Giacomo Ulivi, adding literary elements to the space.

The square contains multiple seating areas and connects several important buildings, including the Palace of the Province and the Palace of Ministers.

A large fountain designed by architect Mario Botta stands on the site of the former Church of San Pietro Martire, demolished during the Napoleonic era.
