One of the characteristic places in Rome where the atmosphere is pleasant. Well known for its staircase leading to Trinité-des-Monts.

Not to be missed. In the lively Piazza di Spagna, you'll find the Palazzo della Propaganda Fide, a major training ground for those who spread the word of the Counter-Reformation. At the foot of the famous Trinità dei Monti staircase, the Barcaccia fountain by Bernini, father and son, dates back to 1629. To build it, Bernini's son had to overcome a number of technical difficulties: hydraulic pressure was too low to create jets of water, so the sculptor imagined a sunken boat taking in water from the stern and bow, in the middle of a barely larger oval basin.

Une très belle place, à visiter pour la fontaine Barcaccia mais aussi pour l’église de la Trinité-des-Monts.

Plus impressionnante en photo qu'en vrai, la place d'Espagne reste quand même un très bel endroit emblématique de Rome qu'il faut visiter !
