Leaning Tower of Pisa History - History Pisa Tower By Umair Ahmad

Pisa Tower is part of a church cathedral of Pisa, located in the Italian city of Pisa. Due to the church, it was built in a specific Romanesque style. It has Composanto symmetry. "Composanto" means the consecration of sacred soil extracted from the Holy Land. Because of this, fame is due to its inclination and mastery of Roman style.

Construction of this Leaning tower of Pisa began on August 8, 1173. It has 8 floors. The Pisa tower is 183.27 feet (55.86 meters) high and 56.70 meters (186.02 feet) high. Although the minaret still holds the old bells that were used at the time of its construction, they are no longer used. Surprisingly, Pisa Tower construction was completed in 200 years, two centuries passed. The reason for such a delay in construction was the construction problems that occurred from time to time, sometimes leading to one problem and another. When the three floors were completed, construction crews suddenly discovered that the minaret was sinking into soft mud on one side. Further construction was immediately stopped and continued for the next 100 years. The idea was that during such a long period, the soil would harden and the tilt would go away. The first attempt to alleviate this tilt was made in 1275 when the construction was restored. In 1301, it had six floors. Its construction was completed in 1350.

So far this minaret has leaned up to 6 meters from its designated place and despite all efforts to relieve this clutter, it is constantly tilting to one side. Scientists have calculated that it is tilting at a speed of 0.25 inches, one millimeter each year, and one day it will come down when it finally falls. The minaret has been closed to the public since 1990 for reasons of safety and security, and efforts to curb its tension for a decade were finally opened to the public in 2001. Experts say that modern methods have prevented the minarets from falling for the next 300 years.
