A wide square with a wonderful view on the valley. On the other side there is the green mountain. But the best is the "Palazzo dei Consoli". The building was a example of medieval architectural with a lot of stairs and some secret passages, The Museum exhibition has a lot of paintings from 15° and 16° century. Furthermore there are seven rare tables (Tavole eugubine) written in part with an old language more ancient than latin and part with "Etruscan language" engraved one century b.C.
