ピサ大聖堂（ぴさだいせいどう）は、イタリア・トスカーナ州、ピサに位置する「ピサのドゥオモ広場」に建てられた、ロマネスク時代を代表する建築物の一つである。ドゥオモ広場はピサのアルノ川の河畔に位置する広場で、1987年にユネスコ世界遺産（文化遺産）に登録されている。広場には大聖堂の他に、洗礼堂や墓所回廊、そして傾きで有名な鐘塔（通称：ピサの斜塔）があり、これら複数の建築物が集合体として全体的に統一された外観を呈していることから、通称「奇跡の広場」（Campo dei Miracoli）とも呼ばれている。
大聖堂の建設作業には多くの芸術家と建築家が携わり、1063年から1118年および1261年から1272年と2回に分けて長期にわたり建設された。大聖堂の建築には様々な建築技術や装飾手法が施されており、大聖堂を象徴する十字架型平面形は、合理主義の傑作とも言われている。
The Campo Santo, also known as Camposanto Monumentale or Camposanto Vecchio , is a historical edifice at the northern edge of the Cathedral Square in Pisa, Italy.
"Campo Santo" can be literally translated as "holy field", because it is said to have been built around a shipload of sacred soil from Golgotha, brought back to Pisa from the Third Crusade by Ubaldo Lanfranchi, archbishop of Pisa in the 12th century. A legend claims that bodies buried in that ground will rot in just 24 hours. The burial ground lies over the ruins of the old baptistery of the church of Santa Reparata, the church that once stood where the cathedral now stands.
The term "monumental" serves to differentiate it from the later-established urban cemetery in Pisa.
The Pisa Baptistery of St. John is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical building in Pisa, Italy. Construction started in 1152 to replace an older baptistery, and when it was completed in 1363, it became the second building, in chronological order, in the Piazza dei Miracoli, near the Duomo di Pisa and the cathedral's free-standing campanile, the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. The baptistery was designed by Diotisalvi, whose signature can be read on two pillars inside the building, with the date 1153.
