Introduction

The Mangia Tower is located near the Siena City Hall in Italy and is one of the tallest medieval towers. In the mid-14th century, the outbreak of the Black Death led to the loss of almost two-thirds of the city's population, greatly affecting its development. After the disaster, survivors added a marble loggia to the tower in honor of the Virgin Mary. There are a total of 332 narrow steps inside the tower, and climbing to the top provides a panoramic view of Siena.
