On the Square of Miracles there is the famous Leaning Tower - the Belfry, the sagging soil after construction made it famous all over the world (the deviation from the vertical axis is 4.31m). It was built for a long time, the soil began to sag after the third tier. Subsequently, while building it, they tried to level the tower, which made it even more indecent and took the form of a banana. At the end of the last century, an international competition was announced to save the tower, as a result of one of the projects, the tower was returned to its original position by 40 cm.
