Quick Summary

Piazza della Vittoria is a square in Naples, Italy, named in commemoration of the Battle of Lepanto in 1571. It is situated near the Villa Comunale, a long public park that runs along the waterfront. The square serves as a gateway to the fashionable shopping streets of Piazza dei Martiri, Via Chiaia, and Via dei Mille. The waterfront road, Via Partenope, passes along the ancient quarter of Santa Lucia, which has undergone significant changes due to land reclamation and construction.1
