The place Castle square
Large open space delimited by the Castello Inferiore (Lower Castle) to the south, the Palace of Doglione to the north and other palaces and porticoes to the sides. They all create a beautiful setting for the famous Living Chess Game that takes place in the second week of September every even year. Though initially a simple unpaved open space, it was paved in the Venetian age (1404-1797) with a listone quadrato civilmente di pietre (square stone strip paving). It is now a large, slightly raised stone platform containing a big chessboard in the centre, south of which the Scaligeri parade ground paved with inlaid marble is visible. The throbbing heart of the social and economic life of the town, animated by its Tuesday market, it preserves testimonies that symbolically refer to the influence of Venice on Marostica (1404-1797). A column (north-east) was erected in memory of the loyalty of the local population to Venice during the war of the League of Cambrai (1508-1510), on top of which stands the lion of St. Mark, symbol of Venice. To the west, another column supports a flagpole where there once used to wave the flag of the Republic of Venice and now supports the Italian flag.
Two lions in bas-relief, one set in the northern facade of the Castello Inferiore (Lower Castle) and the other one in the facade of the Palace of Doglione, overlook the square. The fourteen-century fountain, which was once located in the northern part of the square, was demolished. The white stone well is anyway worth a visit.
