10. Main Market Square, Krakow (Poland)
The Main Market Square is the largest medieval town square in all of Europe. In the middle of the large square stands the Renaissance style Cloth Hall. Around the perimeter of the square are several important town houses, palaces and churches.
11. Saint Peter's Square, Vatican City (The Vatican, Rome)
It is said St. Peters is simply the holiest square the in the world. It contains the remains not only of the Apostle Peter, Jesus' rock upon which Christendom was said to have been built, but also many of the Vatican's popes and even Julius Caesar, one time Pontifex Maximus himself (a pagan religious office which later became identified with the Christian papacy).
12. Piazza del Campo, Siena (Italy)
Siena's world famous Piazza del Campo is perhaps the finest of all medieval squares, due in large part to the consistency and integrity of the surrounding architecture. The piazza is shell shaped, and ringed by many palazzi signorili and the Palazzo Pubblico. Twice a year the horse race known as the Palio di Siena circles del Campo three times. This is a sight to behold!
