Summary

The Leaning Tower of Pisa, a masterpiece of medieval Italian architecture, is a landmark in one of the world's most famous landmarks. Originally built around the year 1170 and constructed using the techniques of the Romans and Christians, the structure has undergone extensive restoration and stabilization with the support of CDM Smith since the 1960s. The tower was partially dismantled in 1966 to expose the underlying structural weaknesses that contributed to the 17th-century tilt. This project was undertaken to preserve the historical and architectural value of the site while ensuring its safety for future visitors and tourists. The current state of the tower remains iconic, featuring a distinctive arched window and a bell tower, which continues to attract visitors from around the globe for sightseeing.
