POI 1 Tour Image
Welcome to Venice
Founded in the 5th century by refugees fleeing barbarian invasions, the city of Venice was built on a lagoon, with its early settlers using wooden piles to stabilize their homes on the marshy islands. Over time, Venice grew into a major trading hub between Europe and the East, establishing itself as a dominant maritime republic by the Middle Ages. The Venetian Republic, also known as “La Serenissima,” controlled vast territories and trade routes, particularly in the Mediterranean. Its wealth and power peaked during the Renaissance, as Venice became a center for art, commerce, and politics. However, by the 18th century, the republic declined due to warms and shifting trade routes, eventually falling to Napoleon in 1797. But, despite all this, Venice came back alive and as you can tell, Venice has stood the test of time and the city’s legacy as a cultural and architectural masterpiece endures to this day.
