According to legend was founded by the legendary Trojan refugees grown on the Greek city of Pisa, post a time in the valley of the river Alpheus [2], in the Peloponnese.
Among the most important monuments of the city there is - in the famous Piazza del Duomo, World Heritage - the marble Cathedral built between 1063 and 1118, in the Pisan Romanesque style, with the bronze door of San Ranieri of Bonanno Pisano and the pulpit by Giovanni Pisano. In the square stands the characteristic leaning tower, tower of the twelfth century, 56 meters high, which acquired its characteristic tilt ten years after the start of its construction, now one of the most famous Italian monuments in the world.
Note the presence of at least three leaning towers: one, the best known, precisely in the Piazza del Duomo, the second consisting of the church tower of St. Nicholas, at the opposite end of Via Santa Maria, near the Lungarno, the third, half way through the avenue of Piagge (river located in the east of the city), is the bell tower of the church of San Michele degli Scalzi (in this case the church is pending).
