PIAZZA DEI MIRACOLI, Square - Introduction

Hi, I'm Gale, your personal guide. Together with MyWoWo, I'd like to welcome you to one of the wonders of the world.

Today I'll accompany you through the Campo dei Miracoli, which is also called the Piazza dei Miracoli.

This square is one of the world's most concentrated areas of artistic masterpieces!

This group of marble monuments has universally been made famous by the presence of the Leaning Tower. You should know that even among the extraordinary wealth of medieval architecture and art in Italy, these four masterpieces in Pisa are a splendid exception. In fact, the Cathedral, Baptistery, Tower and Cemetery are not located in the historic city center, but in an open area: a large emerald-colored meadow near the walls that surround the ancient city. It's crazy to think that thanks to this isolated location, and of course also thanks to their size, the monuments can be seen from quite far away, even as far as the highway!...
