Piazza Giovanni Bovio, Public square in Piombino, Italy.

Piazza Giovanni Bovio is a public square in Piombino located on a natural terrace at the tip of the town's promontory. Transparent markers identify the Tuscan islands visible from this vantage point, including Elba, Giglio, and Montecristo.

The current square was created in the 1920s by demolishing the Rocchetta, an eleventh-century fortification built on ancient Etruscan foundations. This fortress had previously occupied the site before the space was opened up.

The square is named after Giovanni Bovio, an Italian politician and philosopher. A polychrome marble wind rose replaced the old walkable map panel during the square's renovation, and transparent plastic signs at strategic corners now let visitors identify the visible islands. Beside Palazzo Appiani, a path leads down to the small harbour.

The square sits at the end of the Viale del Popolo–Viale Vittorio Emanuele II axis, so it is reached on foot from the town centre. The peninsula-shaped terrace follows the cliff edge and is bordered by the sea on three sides. Passing beside Palazzo Appiani leads down to the small harbour, the Porticciolo.

The terrace replaced a large walkable map of the visible area with a polychrome marble compass rose during the square's renovation. Transparent plastic signs at strategic corners now let visitors identify each island, from nearby Cerboli and Palmaiola to Giglio, Montecristo and Capraia.
