Medieval monumental square

This square was the centre of municipal Tivoli. The religiosus, civil and commercial powers were situated in it and represented by the Church of St.Michael, the Arengo Palace (the town-hall building where the popular assembly met), the Municipal Tower and Piazza delle Erbe, a place of market.

Ex church of St.Michael

The whole monumental complex stood at the centre of an ideal triangle with the three most important convents placed ai its angles.
These are St.Francis, St.Blaise of the dominicans and St.Michael archangel in the Castrovetere district.
