It was the ground that the tower was built on, that eventually caused the tilt of the tower - it was totally unintended. Over the years, there has been many attempts to stabilise the tilt - reinforcing the foundations is just one example. I doubt that anyone wants to see the tower actually fall, or to be straightened to the vertical (the tilted tower is a tourist attraction).

The leaning Tower of Pisa has many myths including that it is going to fall in 2016. It is also a rumor that they were planning on taking it down in the late 1900's. Today, we know that was not true. Another myth is that the leaning Tower of Pisa was designed and meant to lean although that is not true.
Answer :The so-called "leaning tower of Pisa" is the bell tower of the Cathedral. Still today bells ring before the Holy Masses and at noon.

The tower was built with limestone and lime mortar, with marble used inside.
The Tower of Pisa never truly had a lifetime. It was built after the Pisans attacked Sicily in 1063. When they returned with all of their riches, they decided to build a cathedral complex to show the world how gret they were. The Tower of Pisa was intended to be the cathedral's bell tower. However, after only three stories of construction, the tower sunk into the soft ground beneath and the construction was halted. There is now just the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
