This is one of the oldest bookshops in the city. It owes its name to the neighborhood with a famous statue of a boar which stands by the market space. The boar's nickname is "Porcellino" or "little piggy". The bookshop has kept the original furniture from the beginning of the twentieth century. There are rare volumes next to the latest publications.
