Piazza C.L.N., Square in Turin, Italy

Piazza C.L.N. is a small square in the historic center of Turin, just behind the twin churches of Piazza San Carlo. The square is paved and enclosed by tall stone buildings, with a portico bearing the word "EDISON" and a row of flagpoles along the roofline.

Before 1935, the square was known as Piazza delle Due Chiese. Its current look dates from a renovation in 1935 led by Marcello Piacentini, and later the square was renamed after the Comitato di Liberazione Nazionale.

The name of the square recalls the Comitato di Liberazione Nazionale, the committee that led the resistance against fascism. People often pass through it on their way to the nearby churches or shops, and the twin fountains at the back of the churches are a common meeting point.

The square is easy to reach on foot from Via Roma and Piazza San Carlo, and it serves as a passage between the two. Visitors can use it as a short break while exploring the nearby streets, but there are few places to sit.

The twin fountains behind the churches were used as a filming location for Dario Argento's 1975 film Profondo Rosso. After years of disuse, they were restored and put back into service in 2005.
