Seven historical buildings in Pisa, in the heart of the city, host the research laboratories and classrooms of the Scuola Normale Superiore (the Normale University). Nearby there is also Palazzo dell'Orologio, the one with the two towers, one of which became famous thanks to Dante in his Divine Comedy: la Torre della Fame (Tower of Hunger). in fact, as recounted in the work by Dante, Count Ugolino della Gherardesca was imprisoned and starved to death here with his sons and grandsons.
