The Arsenale di Venezia was once the beating heart of Venice’s naval power, where ships for the Republic’s mighty fleet were built on an industrial scale in the Middle Ages. Its vast courtyards and striking medieval structures still reflect the city’s engineering genius. Today, the Arsenale hosts museums and exhibitions that bring this maritime history to life. A fascinating stop for anyone who loves history and architecture.
