The Piazza dei Miracoli or Field of Miracles is to the North of central Pisa. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site and contains the city’s most famous sights: Torre Pendente, Piazza Arcivescovado 1 Daily 09:00-19:00.
The structure was conceived as the cathedral’s bell tower. Construction began in 1173, and the tower started leaning soon afterward due to subsidence of the ground underneath its base.
A project to keep the tower from leaning more and tipping over finally reached a successful conclusion in 2001, and the building is again open to those wishing to climb it. Climbing the tower requires a reservation-based ticket for €18. Tickets can be bought for the tower on the day for a specific entry time. This could be 45 min-2 hr after the purchase, but there is a lot to see while you wait.
It is better to buy tickets online for €18 well in advance. The tickets are non-exchangeable, effectively non-refundable, and only suitable for the tower, so they’re a bit of a risk to purchase in advance. You’ll be rewarded for your effort if you climb.
The famous Pisa leaning tower is not the only one in Pisa; due to the marshy land that they are built on, there are two other leaning towers in Pisa: the Bell Tower of San Nicola Church, near the banks of Arno and the Bell Tower of 3 San Michele of Scalzi Church.
