Known all over the world for its leaning tower, it features many more artistic and architectonic masterpieces, and a rich cultural heritage. Founded in prehistoric times, Pisa was a Roman port and remained an important center in the Early Middle Ages. Between the 11th and 13th century, the Republic of Pisa, one of the four main maritime republics of Italy, was one of the major powers in the Mediterranean. During this time, Pisa ruled over Corsica, most of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cosmundus.com\/atlas\/europe\/southern-europe\/italy\/insular-italy\/sardinia\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Sardinia<\/a>, and many colonies in the Levant, established during the Crusades. Pisa was eventually defeated by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cosmundus.com\/destinations\/genoa\/\">Genoa<\/a>, its main rival, in 1284, and its power began to decline. The city was annexed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cosmundus.com\/destinations\/florence\/\" class=\"ek-link\">Florence<\/a> in 1406 and it has been mainly a cultural center ever since. Now Pisa is a tourist destination thanks to its historic attractions, but it is also known for hosting three prestigious universities: the University of Pisa, the Scuola Normale Superiore, and the Sant&#8217;Anna School of Advanced Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"border: 1px solid #8ed1fc; border-radius: 0%; background-color: inherit; \" class=\"ub-styled-box ub-bordered-box wp-block-ub-styled-box\" id=\"ub-styled-box-3be3eb30-86a3-418e-bba6-e706db275592\">\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\" id=\"ub-styled-box-bordered-content-633322ea-1e92-496d-bfc9-fc4eb9bbc5ab\">Places to see in Pisa<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-aioseo-table-of-contents\"><ul><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#leaning-tower-of-pisa\">\u272a Leaning Tower of Pisa<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#pisa-cathedral\">\u272a Pisa Cathedral<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#pisa-baptistery\">\u272a Pisa Baptistery<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#camposanto-monumentale\">Camposanto Monumentale<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#sinopia-museum\">Sinopia Museum<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#museo-dellopera-del-duomo-di-pisa\">Museo dell&#8217;Opera del Duomo di Pisa<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#walls-of-pisa\">Walls of Pisa<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#botanical-garden-of-pisa\">Botanical Garden of Pisa<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#piazza-dei-cavalieri\">Piazza dei Cavalieri<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#baths-of-nero\">Baths of Nero<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#church-of-santa-caterina-dalessandria\">Church of Santa Caterina d&#8217;Alessandria<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#church-of-san-nicola\">Church of San Nicola<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#museum-of-ancient-ships-of-pisa\">Museum of Ancient Ships of Pisa<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#church-of-santa-maria-della-spina\">Church of Santa Maria della Spina<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#church-of-san-paolo-a-ripa-darno\">Church of San Paolo a Ripa d&#8217;Arno<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#palazzo-giuli-rosselmini-gualandi\">Palazzo Giuli Rosselmini Gualandi<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#church-of-san-michele-in-borgo\">Church of San Michele in Borgo<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#national-museum-of-san-matteo\">National Museum of San Matteo<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#graphics-museum-of-palazzo-lanfranchi\">Graphics Museum of Palazzo Lanfranchi<\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"aioseo-toc-item\" href=\"#basilica-of-san-pietro-apostolo\">Basilica of San Pietro Apostolo<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"leaning-tower-of-pisa\"><strong>\u272a Leaning Tower of Pisa<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Leaning Tower of Pisa (<em>Torre Pendente di Pisa<\/em>), also simply known as Tower of Pisa (<em>Torre di Pisa<\/em>), is the bell tower of the Pisa Cathedral, and one of the most famous landmarks in Italy. The tower was built in various phases between the 12th and 14th century in Romanesque style, and it features a peculiar circular shape and a series of decorated arches and columns. Due to the soft terrain on which it was built, the tower started to sink and lean soon after its construction began. After many restorations works to stabilize the structure, the tower is now tilted by 3.97 degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:85%\">\n<p>Address: Piazza del Duomo, 56126 Pisa PI<br>Coordinates: 43.7230, 10.3966<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:15%\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/wjASFb2Zh6bWtBft8\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">Google Maps<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ub-divider ub_divider ub-divider-orientation-horizontal\" id=\"ub_divider_fc89fdb9-1ea7-4ae3-a306-185cc056acfc\"><div class=\"ub_divider_wrapper\" style=\"position: relative; margin-bottom: 2px; width: 100%; height: 2px; \" data-divider-alignment=\"center\"><div class=\"ub_divider_line\" style=\"border-top: 2px solid #ccc; margin-top: 2px; \"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pisa-cathedral\"><strong>\u272a Pisa Cathedral<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Also known as: Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta (<em>Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pisa Cathedral (<em>Duomo di Pisa<\/em>) is the greatest work of the Pisan Romanesque architecutral style.

Known all over the world for its leaning tower, it features many more artistic and architectonic masterpieces, and a rich cultural heritage. Founded in prehistoric times, Pisa was a Roman port and remained an important center in the Early Middle Ages. Between the 11th and 13th century, the Republic of Pisa, one of the four main maritime republics of Italy, was one of the major powers in the Mediterranean. During this time, Pisa ruled over Corsica, most of Sardinia, and many colonies in the Levant, established during the Crusades. Pisa was eventually defeated by Genoa, its main rival, in 1284, and its power began to decline. The city was annexed by Florence in 1406 and it has been mainly a cultural center ever since. Now Pisa is a tourist destination thanks to its historic attractions, but it is also known for hosting three prestigious universities: the University of Pisa, the Scuola Normale Superiore, and the Sant&#8217;Anna School of Advanced Studies. \u272a Leaning Tower of Pisa The Leaning Tower of Pisa (Torre Pendente di Pisa), also simply known as Tower of Pisa (Torre di Pisa), is the bell tower of the Pisa Cathedral, and one of the most famous landmarks in Italy. The tower was built in various phases between the 12th and 14th century in Romanesque style, and it features a peculiar circular shape and a series of decorated arches and columns. Due to the soft terrain on which it was built, the tower started to sink and lean soon after its construction began. After many restorations works to stabilize the structure, the tower is now tilted by 3.97 degrees.

The interior of the church features many decorations and artworks, such as the large mosaic in the apse, made by Cimabue in 1302.
