- On Saturday and Sunday afternoon at 3.00pm the Guided Tour Centre will offer the liturgical tour Art and Faith, allowing participants to discover the artistic beauties and sacred value of the monuments in the Piazza dei Miracoli.
The Galilean Tour – an intriguing walk around Galileo’s places in the scientist’s hometown – completes the offer.

The Leaning Tower and the Piazza del Duomo, known by the twentieth century as the Piazza dei Miracoli, are the most famous image of the city, but are not the only ones to embellish this ancient city.

Other interesting sights include:

- Knights’ Square (Piazza dei Cavalieri), where the Palazzo della Carovana, with its impressive façade designed by Giorgio Vasari may be seen.
- In the same place is the church of Santo Stefano dei Cavalieri, also by Vasari. It had originally a single nave; two more were added in the 17th century. It houses a bust by Donatello, and paintings by Vasari, Jacopo Ligozzi, Alessandro Fei, and Jacopo Chimenti da Empoli. It also contains spoils from the many naval battles between the Cavalieri (Knights of St. Stephan) and the Turks between the 16–18th century, including the Turkish battle pennant hoisted from Ali Pacha’s flagship at the 1571 Battle of Lepanto.
- Also close to the square is the small church of St. Sixtus. It was formally consecrated in 1133, but previously used as a seat of the most important notarial deeds of the town, also hosting the Council of Elders. It is today one of the best preserved early Romanesque buildings in town.

The small church of Santa Maria della Spina, attributed to Lupo di Francesco (1230), is another excellent Gothic building. The church is one of the most outstanding Gothic edifices of Europe: it has a rectangular plant, with an external facing wholly composed of marble, laid in polychrome bands. The exterior appearance is marked by cusps, tympani and tabernacles, together with a complicated sculpture decoration with tarsiae, rose-windows and numerous statues from the main Pisane artists of the 14th century. These include Lupo di Francesco, Andrea Pisano with his sons Nino and Tommaso, and Giovanni di Balduccio. The façade has two gates with arches. Among these lies the tabernacle with the statues of Madonna with the Child and two Angels, attributed to Giovanni Pisano. Two niches open in the upper part of the façade: these houses the statue of Christ among the two Annunciation ones, and two other angels.

Even this year, Italy and Tuscany are preparing to celebrate in the traditional carnival. And in Tuscany what can be better tradition than the Carnival of Viareggio?

It ‘s there that Viareggio Carnival blossomed as it is known today: one of the most spectacular and beautiful event of the world.

At the beginning of the 20^th century appeared for the first time the triumphal cars, real monuments, modeled by sculptors and put together by carpenters and blacksmiths who could build barges to successfully challenge the insidious waters and the capricious winds of the oceans; since then the wagons, thus constructed, from year to year, taking its cue from the political events and special news of the bel paese.

The Carnival of Viareggio beats like a ritual the life of people in Viareggio who every year prepare and look forward to the transformation of the city, overrun with colors, music and masks. The whole town is celebrating, colored and decorated with masks and streamers and ready to offer attractions and fun for all ages. For over a month Viareggio offers, in addition to the carnival, a wide range of cultural, sports and popular events.

A Museum for the Carnival of Viareggio

And Viareggio to pay homage to this tradition has even created a museum of the carnival. In 2001 it inaugurated the new City of Carnival, a complex destined to become a major attraction. The The Museum of Carnival Citadel, which also houses the studios where the local carpenters produce the monumental wagons, tells through original documents, sketches, posters and models, the glorious history of the Carnival of Viareggio.

But this museum holds surprises of the past. Here you can discover the secrets and tricks of paper-maché. Inside the Museum was in fact created a path that shows the different phases of the development of a work in paper, while at the ground floor of the museum workshops are set up where you can engage in the manipulation of clay and paper to make experience of modeling and processing paper-maché. www.museodelcarnevale.it - tel 0584 51176
