Piazza di Spagna (nel Seicento piazza di Francia), con la scalinata di Trinità dei Monti, è una delle più famose piazze di Roma. Deve il suo nome al palazzo di Spagna, sede dell'ambasciata dello stato iberico presso la Santa Sede. Al centro della piazza vi è la famosa fontana della Barcaccia, che risale al primo periodo barocco, scolpita da Pietro Bernini e da suo figlio, il più celebre Gian Lorenzo Bernini. All'angolo destro della scalinata vi è la casa del poeta inglese John Keats, che vi visse e morì nel 1821, oggi trasformata in un museo dedicato alla sua memoria e a quella dell'amico Percy Bysshe Shelley, piena di libri e memorabilia del Romanticismo inglese. All'angolo sinistro c'è, invece, la sala da tè Babington's fondata nel 1893. Dal lato di via Frattina sorge il Palazzo di Propaganda Fide, di proprietà della Santa Sede. Di fronte alla sua facciata, progettata dal Bernini (mentre la facciata laterale è invece del Borromini), svetta la colonna dell'Immacolata Concezione, che fu innalzata dopo la proclamazione del dogma per volontà del re Ferdinando II delle Due Sicilie in ringraziamento per uno scampato attentato, e inaugurata il giorno 8 dicembre 1857. Dal 1923 i vigili del fuoco offrono un acrobatico omaggio floreale alla statua, avvalendosi delle loro scale; nel 1953 lo stesso pontefice Pio XII volle presenziare alla cerimonia, ma fu con Giovanni XXIII (1958) che la presenza papale a tale cerimonia divenne una vera e propria tradizione, fedelmente mantenuta da tutti i pontefici. Attualmente l'omaggio floreale di Piazza di Spagna - sempre accompagnato da una preghiera mariana del Papa - è una delle cerimonie religiose più amate e popolari in Roma. La piazza è citata in una famosa poesia di Cesare Pavese, denominata "Passerò da piazza da Spagna", il cui testo è stato riportato integralmente su una targa vicino alla sala da tè Babington's.
