15. Piazza Nosetto in the 1500s
In this group of lunettes you can see the successive changes made to the square and the Town Hall. At the end of the 1400s, the Town Hall was enlarged and converted into one building. An arcade and the addition of a bell tower with a metal ball and pennant on top of the roof completed the alterations. The clock was added later.
The walnut tree near the wall was probably planted in an earlier era and gave its name to the square. Recently a new walnut tree has been planted to revive the old tradition.
