picture info	Two Towers, Bologna The Two Towers ( it, Le due torri), both of them leaning, are the symbol of Bologna, Italy, and the most prominent of the Towers of Bologna. They are located at the intersection of the roads that lead to the five gates of the old ring wall (''mura dei torresotti''). The taller one is called the ''Asinelli'' while the smaller but more leaning tower is called the ''Garisenda''. Their names derive from the families which are traditionally credited with having constructed the towers between 1109 and 1119. Their construction may have been a competition between the two families to show which was the more powerful family. However, the scarcity of documents from this early period makes this uncertain. The name of the Asinelli family, for example, is documented for the first time actually only in 1185, almost 70 years after the presumed construction of the tower which is attributed to them. Asinelli Tower It is believed that the Asinelli Tower initially had a height of ca. and was rai ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
