Description

The square Dante Alighieri - Grosseto, Tuscany, Italy The square opens on the right side of the Cathedral and in its center is the statue in honor of Leopold II called Il Canapone because of the color of his hair. The marble group was erected in the square on 7 March 1846 to be inaugurated on 1 May of the same year; represents the Canapone in the act of lifting a woman exhausted by hardship with a dying child allegory of Maremma hit by malaria with his left arm, with his right arm he holds a smiling child hope of the future, while he crushes a foot snake malaria which is also bitten by the griffin symbol of Grosseto. Also in Piazza Dante Alighieri, on the eastern side, we find the Palazzo Aldobrandeschi also known as Palazzo della Provincia. Inaugurated in 1903, it recalls the medieval Sienese style. Formerly in its place stood the Palazzo del Podestà which was however demolished in 1899. A curiosity: the column located between the main facade of the Duomo and the square, is a Roman column positioned in the square in the Middle Ages and most likely comes from ancient city of Roselle.
