Giotto 's Bell Tower

Giotto's Campanile was erecyed on line with the facade of the Cathedral and enriched with white, pink and green marble. It is 84,75 meters in height and has a staircase with 416 steps. It is a splendid example of Florentine Gothic architecture, on a square base with solid side pillars. It was begun by Giotto in 1334, who completed the first zone. After his death(1337) it was continued by his pupil Andrea Pisano who worched on the two upper stories with the beatiful mullioned windows. In 1348 he was succeded by Talenti who finished it in 1359.
