 Introduction
History
On July 14, 1902 at about 10am, the campanile collapsed completely (also demolishing the logetta) because of wrong repairs that caused structural changes. Remarkably no one was killed. The Basilica was barely scratched by bricks and the Libreria Sansoviniana lost just its corner-wall. It was decided to rebuild the tower exactly as it was, with some internal reinforcement to prevent future collapse. The reconstructed campanile was opened on St Mark's Day, April 25, 1912. The Campanile contains just one bell, the marangona, that survived the fall. It was the biggest bell and tolled the beginning and the end of the working day.
The bell tower has played an essential role in the political and social life of the city for centuries. The bells were rung to inform the city's inhabitants of all the main events organized in Venice. At the foot of the bell tower there were popular wine sellers who moved around to stay under the bell tower's shade depending on the time of day. This ancient custom is where the term that the Venetians use for a glass of wine comes from: ombra (shade in Italian).
