Italy Hurries To Save Other "Leaning Tower" | Subscribe to FirstpostTorre Garisenda, the other "leaning tower" of Italy in the city of Bologna, is on the verge of being collapsed. Now the city authorities have announced a new plan to save the tower using a similar method that stabilised its renowned counterpart, the leaning tower of Pisa. The 48-metre Garisenda tower was built in the 12th century; however, two centuries later, it began to tilt. Now, it leans at an angle of four degrees, just a little more than the Pisa tower. Officials have announced plans to deploy the same pylons and cables used in Pisa, along with adapted steel scaffolding, to secure the tower. The 19 million operation aims to decrease stress at the tower's base. While less renowned than Pisa's icon, the leaning Garisenda has been a Bologna tourist attraction, even earning a mention in Dante's "Divine Comedy."---Italy Hurries | Leaning Tower | Torre Garisenda | Bologna | Firstpost | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | Trending News#italy #leaningtower #bologna #firstpost #worldnews #latestnews #globalnews #internationalnews #trendingnewsFirstpost is an Indian news and media website.
