Piazza Martiri della Libertà, Historical square in central Pisa, Italy.
The rectangular plaza features a central statue of Pietro Leopoldo I mounted on a marble plinth decorated with low relief sculptures by Santarelli.
The Grand Duke of Tuscany commissioned architect Alessandro Gherardesca to design this plaza, which opened to the public in 1833.
Medieval buildings border the plaza, including the former Sant'Anna convent that now houses the Scuola Superiore di Perfezionamento.
The plaza connects to several streets and provides pedestrian access to the 13th-century Santa Caterina church and adjacent cultural institutions.
Prior to construction, this space served as a horse training ground and laundry area, causing complaints from local residents.
