    This space, which formerly occupied almost 15% of the city, is the heart from where Venice acquired its greatness and power. One galley a day was made here!

    The construction of the arsenal began under Doge Ordelaf Falier in 1104. The property consisted of two swampy islands in the Castello district. This shipyard, which can be considered the largest manufacturing plant in Europe before the age of industrialization, became a model for other naval arsenals in Europe.

    The Arsenale, the backbone of the naval power of Venice, was founded in the 12th century and expanded and expanded in the following centuries. It was at this time the largest shipyard in the world, where the famous Venetian longships, the "Trireme", were manufactured, equipped and repaired. In the heyday of the Republic in the 16th century, 16,000 workers were employed in the warehouses, workshops, foundries and docks of the Arsenale.
