Piazza Plebiscito, Central square in Ferrandina, Italy.

The square features the Santa Maria della Croce Church from 1492, surrounded by traditional stone buildings and architectural elements of southern Italian design.

The square received its name after the plebiscite of 1860, when Ferrandina supported the unification of Italy following the end of feudal rights in 1806.

The square represents the social center of Ferrandina, where residents gather for traditional festivals and community celebrations throughout the year.

The square provides access to several administrative buildings and connects to Via Mazzini, one of the main commercial streets in Ferrandina.

Local olive farmers often meet in the square during harvest season to discuss cultivation methods for the regional Majatica olive variety.
