What people say

"Tartinijev trg, or Tartini Square, is the central square in Piran, Slovenia, and one of the most iconic landmarks of the town. Named after the renowned violinist and composer Giuseppe Tartini, who was born in Piran, the square serves as a focal point for cultural and social activities. Originally a modest harbor area, Tartini Square underwent significant transformation in the late 19th century when it was filled in and paved to prevent flooding. Today, it is a spacious, open area surrounded by historic buildings, including the Tartini House, where Giuseppe Tartini was born, the 19th-century Town Hall, and the Venetian House, a beautiful example of Gothic Venetian architecture. A prominent feature of Tartini Square is the statue of Giuseppe Tartini, which stands in the center, commemorating the town's most famous resident. The square is a popular venue for various events, such as concerts, festivals, and markets, contributing to the vibrant cultural life of Piran. Tartini Square is also a major tourist attraction, drawing visitors with its picturesque setting, historical significance, and lively atmosphere. It offers a perfect spot for leisurely strolls, dining at outdoor cafes, and enjoying the stunning views of the surrounding architecture and the nearby Adriatic Sea. Tartini Square remains a symbol of Piran's rich cultural heritage and its enduring charm."
