Valdštejnovo náměstí, Central square in Jičín, Czech Republic

The rectangular square features continuous arcades on all sides, with the Renaissance Valdice Gate and Saint James Church marking its boundaries.

The square transformed from a medieval marketplace to its current form under Albrecht von Wallenstein's commission of Italian architects in the 17th century.

Three monumental fountains grace the square: the Coronation Fountain, the Marian Column, and the Fountain with the Statue of Amphitrite.

The square maintains its function as a market space, with regular Saturday morning trading sessions taking place throughout the year.

The Renaissance Valdice Tower, the sole remaining gate from the original three city gates, stands at 52 meters tall on the square.
