Campaliniare bell-towers were usually built near a church or a religious complex and meant to mark the time of the day or to provide special alerts during specific events. As such, they were an essential element of daily life. Though not exclusive to Italy, these became an iconic feature of many Italian towns, especially during the Renaissance. Beyond their original function, campanili of the period were a visible sign of power and prestige. Each city competed to have the most elaborate one, decorated by renowned architects with fine adornments and rare material.
