Monumento a Arnaldo da Brescia

The four-meter-tall bronze statue stands on a base made of red Verona marble and Botticino stone in the eastern part of the square.

The monument, inaugurated in 1882 after twenty years of preparation, commemorates Arnold of Brescia, a medieval monk who opposed clergy corruption.

Four bronze relief panels on the pedestal illustrate important moments from Arnold's life, including his preaching and subsequent condemnation.

The monument occupies a central position in the square, making it a reference point for orientation and meeting in the city center.

The neo-Romanesque pedestal, designed by architect Antonio Tagliaferri, features intricate columns and decorated frames that complement the bronze sculpture.
