Pisa - Miracles Square - Tower of Pisa

Naturally we're talking about the Torre di Pisa, the leaning tower famous in all the world that you can see in the beautiful place of Piazza dei Miracoli in the tuscan city of Pisa. The work for build it started in 1173 but the tower tilted himself immediately because of foundation 3 meters only deep and the terrain (silt/sand) little stable. The tower was completed in 1350, when it became the bell tower of the Pisa cathedral with its seven bell. In fact the combinig between cathedral and tower is taken again in the little logge made with arch "a tutto sesto" that you can see in both monuments.
The Torre of Pisa is 58 meters high and it's out from the perpendicular 5 meter so at the end of XVIII century the structure standed some restore intervention for set it safety and for to be reopened at the pubblic. Inside Piazza dei Miracoli that is the most important tourist and art center of Pisa and Unesco's estate since 1987, there are other spectacular monuments ("miracles" in the poet D'Annunzio opinion) like the Cathedral and the Baptistery.
The middle age cathedral, that is the Duomo of Santa Maria Assunta, is a classical example of the romanic style from Pisa, it's equipped by richer decorations and colorated marbles, bronzes and impressive mosaics like that placed in the apse made by Cimabue. All the square is cobbled and there are a lot of lawns but the present aspect has been assumed only in the XIX century because of the architect Alessandro Gherardesca's work.
