History of Venice, Italy: It is situated across a group of 118 small islands[1] that are separated by canals and linked by over 400 bridges. Venice has been known as the “City of Water", "City of Masks", "City of Bridges", "The Floating City", and "City of Canals." Venice consisted of refugees from Roman cities near Veniceas people fled their homes on the mainland when barbarian conquerors were ravaging Italy in the 5th century A.D. They used the marshy lagoon (Venice) for protection and found refuge among the poor fishermen living there. As the invasions continued across Italy, more and more refugees joined the first settlers and the need to build a new city grew.The famous city of Venice was born on Friday March 25th 421 AD and that is the beginning of the long and rich history for Venice.
How Venice was built is its most fascinating story. When the new settlers arrived on the islands around 402 A.D., they were faced with the need for more space and a stronger foundation to live on. They had to find ways to strengthen the islands, drain them, enlarge them and protect the fragile environment. So, they dug hundreds of canals and shored up the banks with wood pilings. They also used similar wood pilings as foundations for their buildings. The settlers pounded thousands of wooden piles into the mud, so close together that they were touching. Then, they cut off the tops and created solid platforms for the foundations of their homes. Because the wood was underwater, it didn’t rot. It’s hard to believe, but there are many buildings in Venice today that are still standing on 1000 year old piles of wood!
