« Biblioteca Reale | Main | Piazza Il Duomo »
It is just not possible to miss what's at the crossroads between Corso Vittorio Emanuele II and Corso Galileo Ferraris. The monument to Vittorio Emanuele II dominates the square and gives a reassuring glance at the drivers clogging the square below. The enormous statue stands on four Doric columns. It was raised on the wishes of his son, Umberto I, and was designed by Pietro Costa in 1899.
