Piazza della Repubblica, also known as Piazza Esedra till the Rome Olimpic Games in 1960, is located close to Termini station, in front of Terme di Diocleziano, that can be seen by the square. Terme di Diocleziano, built in 306 D.Sc., are the oldest and biggest baths of all the roman world. Today they host for the most part the epigraphic museum, that collects written documents on various supports from 700 B.C to 300 a.C.

The first name of this square, very famous also today, takes from the big roman bath exedra, who is contained in the semi-circular column line of the square. The arcades were built to remind the ancient buildings once were there: all the buildings are from 1887-1898 by Gaetano Koch. On the square we find the Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri, built into a side the imperial roman bath: Michelangelo raised the vast church with greek cross pattern from the tepidarium. At the very center of the square there’s one of the most famous fountains in Rome: the Fontana delle Naiadi, a wonderful work by Mario Rutelli in 1901. The naiadi you can admire are Nynph of Lakes, with a swan at her side, la Nynph of Rivers, laying down on a river monster, and the Nynph of Oceans, on a horse that represents the see, and the Nynph of Underground Waters, with a mysterious dragon.
