Pisa farm holidays

Among the most important monuments of the city there is – in the famous Piazza del Duomo, World Heritage – the marble Cathedral built between 1063 and 1118, Pisan Romanesque style, with the bronze door of St Rainier of Bonanno Pisano and the pulpit by Giovanni Pisano. In the square stands the characteristic leaning tower, tower of the twelfth century, 56 meters high, which acquired its characteristic tilt ten years after the beginning of its construction, now one of the most famous Italian monuments in the world. Note the presence of at least three leaning towers: one, the best known, in Piazza del Duomo; the second consisting of the church tower of St. Nicholas, at the opposite end of Via Santa Maria, near the Lungarno; the third, half way through the avenue of Piagge (located on the riverfront east of the city), is the bell tower of the church of San Michele degli Scalzi (in this case the church is pending).
