The **Leaning Tower of Pisa** (Italian: *Torre Pendente di Pisa*) is one of the most famous landmarks in Italy and the world. Located in the city of Pisa, in the Tuscany region, this iconic structure is renowned for its unintended tilt, which has made it a symbol of architectural uniqueness. ### History and Construction: - **Construction Period:** The construction of the tower began in 1173 and was completed in stages over nearly 200 years, finally concluding in 1372. - **Architectural Style:** The Leaning Tower of Pisa is built in a Romanesque style, characterized by its round arches and decorative elements. It is the freestanding bell tower (campanile) of the Pisa Cathedral. - **Architect:** The initial design of the tower is credited to Bonanno Pisano, although there is some debate about this, as other architects, such as Diotisalvi, may have also been involved. ### The Lean: - **The Tilt:** The famous tilt began during construction in the 12th century, caused by an unstable foundation of soft, marshy soil that could not support the tower's weight. The tower started leaning to the southeast before it was even completed. - **Correction Efforts:** Over the centuries, numerous attempts were made to stabilize the tower. In the late 20th century, a major restoration project successfully reduced the tilt from about 5.5 degrees to just under 4 degrees, ensuring the tower's preservation. - **Height:** The tower stands at approximately 56 meters (183 feet) on the low side and 57 meters (186 feet) on the high side due to the tilt. ### The Structure: - **Floors:** The Leaning Tower of Pisa has eight floors, including the chamber for the seven bells, each corresponding to a musical note. - **Marble Construction:** The tower is built primarily of white and gray marble, with some details in red, black, and green stones. ### Cultural Significance: - **UNESCO World Heritage Site:** The Leaning Tower, along with the Cathedral of Pisa, the Baptistery, and the Camposanto, forms part of the Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles), which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. - **Tourism:** The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of Italy’s most visited tourist attractions. Visitors can climb its 294 steps to the top for a panoramic view of Pisa and the surrounding area. ### Interesting Facts: - **Galileo's Experiment:** According to legend, the famous scientist Galileo Galilei conducted experiments on gravity by dropping two spheres of different masses from the tower to prove that their time of descent was independent of their mass. - **Symbol of Resilience:** The tower's resilience and continued existence despite its tilt have made it a symbol of perseverance and adaptability. ### Visiting the Tower: - **Access:** Visitors can buy tickets to climb the tower, but due to its popularity, it is advisable to book in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons. - **Surrounding Attractions:** Besides the tower itself, the Piazza dei Miracoli offers other significant monuments, including the Pisa Cathedral, the Baptistery of St. John, and the Camposanto Monumentale (a historical cemetery). The Leaning Tower of Pisa remains one of the most remarkable architectural achievements in history, attracting millions of visitors each year who come to marvel at its unique tilt and the story behind its construction and preservation.

The magnificent marble cathedral with ornate Romanesque bronze doors and carved pulpit from the 14th century with its beauty leaves no one indifferent. In this beautiful square it shines in full splendor along with Baptistery os St. John and of course with the magnificent Leaning Tower. The Church, dedicated to Saint Maria Assunta, lies at the centre of Square of Miracles. "White marble temple as snow" (reads an inscription on the facade), the cathedral of Pisa is one of the greatest masterpieces of Romanesque architecture, which combine stylistic elements Lombard-Emilian, classic, late ancient, Byzantine, Ravenna and Arabs. Master Buscheto in 1064 begun with construction and finished in the mid-1100s by master Rainaldo with the extension of the building and the facade, it was built as a symbol of the power of the Pisan Maritime Republic. The plan of the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta is a Latin cross with five naves in the central body and three in the transept. The facade is made of gray marble and white stone with inclusions of colorful marble. In the three bronze doors, the work from the workshop of Giambologna, are depicted stories of the Redeemer and the Virgin (Storie del Redentore e della Vergine). The interior is tiled with white and black marble, and the interesting thing is that the Corinthian capitals are spoils of war from the mosque in Palermo (1063). The Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta is very richly decorated and houses many works of great historical and artistic importance. The vault is gilded, while the dome painted with frescoes. The apse is decorated with mosaics Cimabuea (Fig San Giovanni), and there is the famous Romanesque marble pulpit, which was performed by Giovanni Pisano. The tomb of St. Raineri, the patron saint of Pisa, Emperor Henry VII. and Pope Gregory VIII, but also relics of the three saints related to the Crusades (Abibo, Gamaliel, and Nicodemus) are located in the Cathedral. Galileo Galilei is believed to have embodied his theory of the movement of the pendulum by watching the swinging chandelier hanging from the vault of the cathedral's main nave.

This grandiose masterpiece of Romanesque - Pisa Style was started in the year 1063 by the great architect Buschetto. It is therefore, the first work undertaken in the spot that became later the "Piazza dei Miracoli". It was possible because of the enormous wealth amassed by the powerful Sea Republic which at that time Pisa was, particularly after a successful excursion on Palermo. The Cathedral was consecrated in the year 1118, even though still incomplete, by Pope Gelasio II. It was terminated in the 13th century, with the erection of the façade, unchanged up to today, by Rainaldo. The Cathedral, designed in Latin-Cruciform, basically has a romanesque architectural style, but at the same time interprets and absorbs elements of various styles, forming thus a unique style which has something of sublime. The Cathedral was adorned through the years with numerous works of art. Giovanni Pisano is certainly the artist who excels in these works, especially because he has given us the famous, extremely rich and ingenious Pergamo (Pulpit).

Superbă arhitectură, impresionantă realizare...fondată în 1063 și dedicată Sfintei Maria Assunta, dar cunoscută inițial sub numele de Santa Maria Maggiore, este o biserică cu cinci nave cu transept cu trei nave, arhitectural este compusă din trei bazilici (corp central și două transepturi)...începută în 1063 de arhitectul Busketo, a dat naștere stilului distinctiv romanic pisan....decorul foarte bogat include marmură multicoloră, mozaicuri (este foarte important cel din bazinul absidal, executat de diverși muncitori printre care și Cimabue) și numeroase obiecte din bronz din prada de război, printre care Grifonul folosit ca acroterion estic al acoperișului...arcurile de profil acut se referă la influențe musulmane și din sudul Italiei, în special la a doua Abație din Montecassino..ușile de pe fațada, din bronz, au fost turnate de diverși artiști atribuiți școlii lui Fra Domenico Portigiani în secolul al XVII-lea au înlocuit ușile originale distruse de incendiul care a devastat o mare parte din interiorul bisericii în 1595...singura ușă originală care a supraviețuit a fost așa-numita Porta di San Ranieri, situată în fața clopotniței: a fost realizată în jurul anului 1180 de către Bonanno Pisano....interiorul este acoperit cu marmură alb-negru, are un tavan casetat auriu și câteva fresce...a fost intens redecorat după incendiul din 1595, care a distrus majoritatea lucrărilor medievale; s-au adăugat apoi altarele laterale și picturile mari de-a lungul pereților navelor laterale...impresionantul mozaic al absidei, din 1302, al lui Hristos, flancat de Fecioara și Sfântul Ioan Evanghelistul, atribuit în general lui Cimabue (dar care a fost doar autorul Sfântului Ioan), a supraviețuit totuși incendiului...cupola structurală din lemn, la intersecția naosului și a transeptului, cu profilul său eliptic neobișnuit, a fost decorată de Riminaldi cu Adormirea Maicii Domnului...legenda spune că Galileo și-a formulat teoria asupra izocronismului pendulului urmărind oscilația candelabrului de tămâie care cobora din tavanul naosului...candelabru prezent și astăzi, cunoscut sub numele de Lampa lui Galileo, nu este cel pe care savantul l-a văzut la acea vreme, ci datează de câțiva ani mai târziu...lampa originală, mult mai mică și mai simplă (și, prin urmare, capabilă să se balanseze cu vântul), este astăzi prezentă în Campo Santo din interiorul capelei Aulla....impresionante coloane de granit în stil corintic dintre naos și absidă provin de la moscheea din Palermo, prada bătăliei de la Cala dai Pisani din 1063...
