Also in the square we noticed the following
A rainbow flag with PACE on it hanging from a balcony and immediately thought it was some reference to the LGBT+ community however when we did some googling it was anything but.
Pace is Italian for Peace and this flag became popular with the Pace da tutti i balconi (peace from every balcony) campaign in 2002 which started as a protest against the impending war in Iraq and we assume that it flies now because of the Ukrainian conflict. In any event it is a campaign that has turned 21 this year!
