The square was built in the 1st century on a former Stadium of Domitian; now, the ruins are a part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The stadium was used for athletics competitions known as "Circus Agonalis" or the competition arena. You can still recognize the square's unique shape and visit the ruins of the stadium 4.5 meters (15 ft.) under Piazza Navona. Later in history, the square turned into a lake during the summer to stage famous naval battles. There are even some legends about ghosts who wander around the square. #CircusAgonalis #rome #piazzanavona
