| European Motorhome Rental Stations: Italy > Pisa / Tuscany |
| |
| In the Middle Ages, Pisa (Tuscany) was an important Mediterranean trade centre, and accumulated vast mercantile wealth. This is reflected in the splendid buildings of the era-particularly the Duomo, one of the finest Romanesque buildings in Tuscany, the circular Baptistery, which contains Nicola Pisano's magnificent marble pulpit, and the campanile, more famously known as the Leaning Tower. All of these are gathered together in the Campo dei Miracoli alongside the Camposanto cemetery said to contain soil from the Holy Land. Other major sights of Pisa include the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo, and the National Museum which contains a wealth of Pisan and Florentine art from the 12th to the 17th centuries. The little Gothic church of Santa Maria della Spina in Pisa was built to house a thorn (spina) from Christ's Crown of Thorns.
