Tartini Square
Tartinijev trg / Piazza Tartini
The oval central square of Piran's old town, once an inner harbour, lined with Venetian-style palazzi. A statue of violinist Tartini stands at its centre.
The square is named after the composer Giuseppe Tartini, born in Piran in 1692. It was created in 1894 by filling in the inner harbour, and white stones set into the paving trace the outline of the old port. Around it stand the town hall, the courthouse, the red Venetian House and Tartini's former residence, now a small memorial museum. Vehicles from outside town cannot enter. Park in the parking garage outside the walls and transfer to the free shuttle bus.
