History and description

The Loggia was built in the 14th century by the Guild of Wool Artists. “Wool” is lana in Italian. The square was then called the Piazza del Sopramuro and was surrounded by centuries-old buildings.
In 1932, when the new city market was built, the Loggia was reopened and today it houses the Tourist Office of Perugia.
The square itself is built on an ancient Etruscan wall that had been constructed as a safeguard against landslides.
