Piazza De Ferrari is Genoa's most important public square. It links Genoa's historical heart with its modern, commercial centre. In the middle of the square a large fountain shoots jets of water into the air. Several important buildings are located on this square.
 

After the asphyxiation of the narrow lanes, this fountain-embellished main piazza ringed by magnificent buildings feels as if you have just come up for air. Showcase architecture includes the art Niuveau Palazzo dell Borsa, which was once the country's stock exchange. The hybrid neoclassical modernist Teatro Carlo Feloce, and the impressive central fountain.
