Certosa di Calci (o di Pisa) (3) - a photo on Flickriver

            La Certosa di Pisa si trova in provincia di Pisa, nel comune di Calci, in una zona pianeggiante alle pendici dei monti pisani chiamata "Val Graziosa". Ex monastero certosino, ospita attualmente il Museo di storia naturale dell'Università di Pisa.

La Certosa di Calci presso Pisa è un complesso monastico certosino fondato nel 1367 e ampliato nel corso dei secoli XVII e XVIII. Nel 1634 l’architetto fiorentino Matteo Nigetti, allievo e collaboratore di Bernardo Buontalenti, progetta il grande chiostro intorno a cui si distribuiscono le celle dei padri. Tra il 1764 e il 1797 il priore Alfonso Maggi avvia una fase di importanti lavori di ampliamento e decorazione che trasformerà la Certosa in una delle testimonianze di arte e architettura settecentesche più significative della Toscana.

La struttura originale risale alla metà del 1300, ma ciò che oggi vediamo è frutto di un'attenta ristrutturazione pensata per dar alloggio ai monaci che fuggivano dalla Francia e da Napoleone, in seguito alle drammatiche nuove leggi che volevano chiusi tutti i monasteri.

The Certosa di Pisa is located in the province of Pisa, in the municipality of Calci, in a flat area on the slopes of the Pisan mountains called "Val Graziosa". Former Carthusian monastery, it currently houses the Natural History Museum of the University of Pisa.

The Certosa di Calci near Pisa is a Carthusian monastic complex founded in 1367 and expanded during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In 1634 the Florentine architect Matteo Nigetti, a pupil and collaborator of Bernardo Buontalenti, designed the large cloister around which the fathers' cells were distributed. Between 1764 and 1797 the prior Alfonso Maggi began a phase of important expansion and decoration works that will transform the Charterhouse into one of the most significant examples of 18th century art and architecture in Tuscany.

The original structure dates back to the mid-1300s, but what we see today is the result of careful restructuring designed to accommodate the monks who fled from France and Napoleon, following the dramatic new laws that wanted all monasteries closed.
