  • The Leaning Tower of Pisa (Italian: Torre Pendente di Pisa) is a freestanding bell tower located in the Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles) in Pisa, Italy. It is renowned worldwide for its unintended tilt, which gives it a unique and iconic appearance.
    Brief History
    Construction Began: August 11731.
    Architectural Style: Romanesque.
    Height: Approximately 56 meters (185 feet).
    Material: White and grey marble.
    Key Historical Points
    Foundation Issues: The tower began to lean during construction due to the soft, unstable ground and inadequate foundation1.
    Construction Pauses: Work was halted several times due to wars and conflicts, allowing the foundation to settle and preventing early collapse1.
    Completion: The tower was completed in the 14th century, with the final touches added around 13722.
    Restoration Efforts: Extensive work has been done over the centuries to stabilize the tower and reduce its lean, including a major project in the late 20th century that reduced the tilt to less than 4 degrees1.
    Today, the Leaning Tower of Pisa is a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from around the world who come to admire its unique architecture and take the classic “holding up the tower” photos.
