Campo de' Fiori is located in the heart of the Centro Storico next to the Piazza Farnese and a short walk from the Piazza Navona. In the 14th century, Campo dei Fiori was a long-abandoned field filled with flowers. Legend indicates that Campo dei Fiori was named after the woman loved by Pompey, Flora, but the site has stood witness to several grisly incidents during the course of history.
Julius Caesar was murdered in a subsidiary building of the Roman senate near the square. Giordano Bruno, a 1600s philosopher was burned at the stake for heresy in the piazza and his statue now, adorns the center of Campo De’ Fiori.
During the 1500s, Campo de' Fiori was the geographic and cultural center of secular Rome. The demolition of a block of housing in 1858 enlarged Campo dei Fiori, and since 1869 there has been a vegetable and fish market there every morning. In the afternoons, local games of football give way to set-ups for outdoor cafés. At night, Campo dei Fiori is a popular meeting place for young people, both Italian and foreign
