Sordello Square is a large square located in Mantua and dedicated to the Mantish poet of the thirteenth century Sordello of Goito. St. Peter's Square, its first denomination, was built in 1330 after the demolition of old houses that were arranged between two parallel streets that still followed the ancient urban design of the Roman city. The predominant architecture of the square can be traced back mainly to the Late Middle Ages with insertions that can be placed in the 1700s.
