The Campo dei Miracoli - Field of Miracles in Pisa
The Campo dei Miracoli ("Field of Miracles") is a wide, walled area at the heart of the city of Pisa, Tuscany, Italy, recognized as one of the main centers for medieval art in the world. Partly paved and partly grassed, it is dominated by four great religious edifices: the Duomo, the Leaning Tower (the cathedral's campanile), the Baptistery and the Camposanto. It is otherwise known as Piazza del Duomo ("Cathedral Square"). In 1987 the whole square was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The term "field of miracles" (campo dei miracoli) is wrong referred to this place. The real name is "Piazza del duomo" (square of the cathedral), but it is also known as "Piazza dei miracoli" (square of the miracles). The "Campo dei miracoli" (field of the miracles) is a fictional field in the book Pinocchio, were to seed some gold coins to grow a money tree.
