Off the small street that goes South on the East side of the Pantheon (to your right when exiting) there is a small square called piazza della Minerva. It will be on your left when walking towards Corso Vittorio Emanuel II. In the middle of the square stands this small obelisk perched on the back of a baby elephant (a baby obelisk deserves a baby elephant, I guess). It was designed by Bernini in 1667. It's a neat litle curiosity to look for when leaving the Pantheon area.
