Situated in the heart of Rome is a colorful square known as Campo de' Fiori. During the Middle Ages, the area was a meadow. The name Campo de' Fiori literally means "field of flowers."
Each morning, a vibrant fruit and vegetable market is held at the piazza. It's not uncommon to also find spices, fish, pasta, olive oil, vinegar, and souvenirs for sale. The market has been held daily since 1869.
At the center of the piazza is a statue of Giordano Bruno, a philosopher and intellectual heretic who was burnt alive at this spot on February 17, 1600.
Bruno is standing as he defiantly faces the Vatican who placed all of his works on the Index of Forbidden Books by the Holy Office. When the statue of erected in 1889, the Vatican protested but was overruled by angry locals.
At night, Campo de' Fiori is busy as a meeting place with locals and tourists have a drink or eat at one of the cafes lining the square.
