The Leaning Tower of Pisa was stabilised in the years 1999–2000 by an International Committee appointed by the Italian Government. An analysis of the history of the monument and the results of investigations and monitoring led to the conclusion that the tower was affected by a phenomenon of instability of the equilibrium. The stabilisation intervention, conceived to be totally respectful of the integrity of the monument, consisted of slightly decreasing the inclination of the Tower by removing a small volume of soil beneath the north side of the foundation.
