Tartini Square

Tartini Square is the central square Piran and bears the name of the violinist and composer Giuseppe Tartini, who was born here in 1692. Until 1894 there was a mandrač on this spot, an inner harbour for fishing boats, which was filled in for reasons of hygiene.

The square has preserved the elliptical shape of the former harbour and is paved with white Istrian stone. Its present appearance was designed in 1992, on the three-hundredth anniversary of Tartini's birth, by the architect Boris Podrecca. Around the square stand the Town Hall, the Venetian House, the church of St Peter, the Court Palace, the Town Loggia and Tartini's birth house.

The square is the starting point for seeing the old town centre and the coast.
