About Leaning Tower of Pisa

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, located in the Piazza dei Miracoli in the city of Pisa in the north of Italy, and the bell tower of the city cathedral, which was built between 1063 and 1090, was built in 1173 separately from the main building.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa consists of a series of 6 overlapping round columns. It is 56 meters high. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is reached by a staircase with 294 steps. The 8th floor, where the top bells are located, is cylindrical.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa started to lean towards the south from the date it was finished. This is due to a collapse in the soft ground at the foundation. Today, a plumb hanging down from the top of the tower in the south direction descends 4.3 meters. However, since the projection of the center of gravity of the building remains inside its own foundation circle, the tower does not overturn. The Leaning Tower of Pisa leans seven-tenths of a millimeter (0.7 cm in 100 years) every year. The current inclination of the tower is 5.5 degrees.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa was built as a symbol of Pisa's power and wealth, rivaling Genoa and Venice.

It is claimed that Galileo observed that all objects fall at the same speed and obeying the same physical law by dropping two cannonballs of different weights down from this tower. Although the source of information was a student of Galileo, this claim is widely accepted as a myth. The Leaning Tower of Pisa was closed for repairs between 1990 and 2001.

Italy's famous Leaning Tower of Pisa, which was on the verge of collapse due to the collapse on its ground, was saved with a £20 million project. The tower, which was warned to be demolished in a few years, was restored with a 45 cm leveling work carried out within the scope of the project.
