About

About the area

Pisa has an impressive history of crusaders and merchants who dominated the Mediterranean. This Republic of the Sea, thanks to the ships protected by the mouth of the Arno, was fabulously rich for more than three centuries and the city centre shows the splendour of this glorious era. The most famous monument is the Leaning Tower, sloping but balanced on the ground due to the settling of the water table for more than eight hundred years: it was built in the 12th century as the bell tower of the Cathedral complex, a series of marvellous buildings that attract millions of visitors. It is no coincidence that it is called the Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles), which legend considers too beautiful and grandiose to have been made by mortal man. It is the most beautiful and most intact work of Gothic art in the whole of Europe. There, you can visit the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, the Baptistery, and the Camposanto with its collection of preparatory drawings for frescoes and the National Museum of San Matteo, where there are masterpieces of medieval sculpture and painting such as polyptychs painted using gold. A journey through time to experience a majestic past.
