Piazza della Riforma, Main square in Lugano, Switzerland
The Town Hall dominates Piazza della Riforma with its neoclassical architectural style, creating a central landmark in the city of Lugano.
Originally named Piazza Grande, the square witnessed political events in 1798 when local partisans fought for independence under the motto 'Free and Swiss'.
The square hosts multiple annual celebrations including Estival Jazz, Blues to Bop festival, and traditional Christmas markets throughout different seasons.
Located within walking distance from Lugano's train station, the square offers numerous restaurants, cafes, and direct access to public transportation.
The square changed its name to Piazza della Riforma in 1830 to reflect the constitutional modifications occurring in the Canton of Ticino.
