| ....ABOUT PISA |
In Pisa there is the famous Miracle Square, where the most beautiful monuments and the Pisa Tower are
present. For much of the middle ages, Pisa’s powerful navy ensured its dominance of the western
Mediterranean. Trading links with Spain and North Africa in the 12th century brought vast mercantile
wealth and formed the basis of a scientific and cultural revolution that is still reflected in Pisa’s splendid
buildings – especially the Duomo, Baptistry and Campanile (Leaning Tower).
Pisa’s decline began in 1284, with its defeat by Genoa, and was hastened by the silting up of the
harbour. The city fell to the Florentines in 1406, but suffered its worst crisis in 1944 when it fell victim to
allied bombing.
For more information about Pisa please visit the Tourist Consortium of the PISA AREA WEBSITE.
The arts in Italy have had a long and glorious history and Italians are very proud of this. Given the fact that
Italy has more than 100,000 monuments, all of which have major historical significance, it is not
surprising that there is a storage of funds to keep them in good repair.
Many museums in Italy are closed, or partially closed. However, with tourism now accounting for around
3% of Italy’s Gross Domestic Product, efforts are being made to put as many buildings and collections
on show as possible..
