The Guelph Tower and Medici Citadel on the Arno River were part of the Republican Arsenal of Pisa. From the tower there are great views over the city of Pisa. The nearby Medici Arsenale was built in the 16th century as a shipyard. Now it contains the exhibition on the Roman Ships of Pisa excavation.
