Quick Glance: Italy's Efforts to Save Leaning Tower from Collapse
- Italy is racing to save Bologna's leaning tower, Torre Garisenda, from collapsing using techniques from the Tower of Pisa.
- The 48-meter Garisenda tower, built in the 12th century, currently leans at a four-degree angle. Last year, the area was sealed off as the tower was deemed at 'high risk' of collapsing.
- Mayor Matteo Lepore announced the deployment of pylons, cables, and steel scaffolding to prevent the tower's collapse, with an estimated cost of 19 million euros. Adaptation of the equipment from Pisa to Garisenda will take about six months.
- Once the pylons are erected and adapted, consolidation work will start, ensuring the tower's stability. The tower, mentioned in Dante Aligheri's 'Divine Comedy,' is set to receive a second life with these efforts.
