"A world-famous architectural structure known for its unintended tilt, located in Pisa."
"Pisa’s famous leaning tower (the campanile of the adjacent Duomo) is part of the Piazza del Duomo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that also includes the Duomo, baptistery and cemetery. Begun in 1173, the tower began to lean almost immediately thanks to soil subsidence. To try to halt the tilt, cables and counterweights have been inserted. A spiral staircase with nearly 300 steps leads to the top of this unique, iconic building."

"An unmistakable leaning Italian landmark is repurposed as the Tower tarot card in a pasta-themed deck, using its iconic tilt to symbolize upheaval, sudden change, and collapse within a culturally specific, playful reinterpretation. As part of the project’s wider use of Italian imagery, this structure anchors the deck’s blend of classic tarot symbolism with culinary references, making the card immediately recognizable while reframing its meaning through food-centered visual wit." - Jaya Saxena
