Leaning Tower in Pisa — FAQ

Can you climb the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
Yes — you can climb the Leaning Tower’s 251 steps with a timed-entry ticket, which is limited and sells out; the lean is clearly felt as you climb, and the top gives views over the Square of Miracles.
What is on the Square of Miracles?
The Square of Miracles (Piazza dei Miracoli) holds the Leaning Tower, the grand Pisa Cathedral, the round baptistery and the Camposanto monumental cemetery, all in gleaming marble — a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Do you need to book Leaning Tower tickets in advance?
Yes — tickets to climb the Leaning Tower are timed and limited, so book ahead, especially in summer; cathedral and complex tickets are also best pre-booked to skip queues.
