Basilica of San Giacomo, Chioggia The Church of San Giacomo was built in 1740 according to the design of the Venetian Pietro Pelle and completed by his nephew Domenico Pelle. The present church, with a single nave, was built on the site of an earlier Romanesque church with three naves supported by low brick columns that had been demolished by decay. It was consecrated in 1790 and became a Basilicata in 1806 after the relic of the Madonna della Navicella was placed within its walls. The church houses numerous works of art. Between 1989 and 1992, it housed the relics of the patron saints Felice and Fortunato and was the site of numerous religious ceremonies during the restoration of the cathedral.

One of the major projects completed during the Fascist era is the Sottomarina Dam, which, together with the Ca' Roman Dam built a few years earlier, completes the mouth of the Port of Chioggia. Construction began in the years following the First World War. Like the Murazzi (sea walls), the dam was constructed of brick and boulders of local Istrian stone and, in addition to finally completing the entrance to the Port of Chioggia, also allowed for a further expansion of the beach. The inauguration, as mentioned, took place in the midst of the Fascist regime on April 28, 1935, in the presence of the Duke of Aosta. The dam was immediately embraced by the local population, especially the residents of Sottomarina, a popular destination for their walks, so much so that many refer to it as "Sailors' Square."

The Dam and the Walls, Sottomarina The Dam and the Walls The Walls are Istrian stone walls built by the Republic of Venice starting in the late 18th century to protect the inhabited centers of the lagoon from marine erosion. They are divided into three sections: one on the island of Lido, a second on the island of Pellestrina as far as Cà Roman, and a third along the coast of Sottomarina, running from Forte San Felice to the center of Sottomarina at a height of approximately 1200 meters. The famous War of Chioggia led to the complete destruction of Sottomarina, which became an uninhabited area, exposed to the sea without any protection and subject to frequent flooding. Reconstruction, which included the construction of the Walls, did not begin until 1600. The Walls along Via San Felice were more than 5 kilometers long and over 300 meters wide. They were built from square stones, primarily Istrian stone, erected on stilts extending to the Pellestrina coast and, of course, the Sottomarina coast. Initially, given the scale of the project and the lack of adequate equipment, construction seemed impossible, so it took thirty-eight years to complete in 1770. Legend has it that the inscription "Ausu romano, aere veneto" (With Roman boldness, with Venetian money) was already in place. The inscription is still visible when passing by on the Chioggia-Pellestrina vaporetto. The Murazzi ceased to function between the late 19th and early 20th centuries when the receding sea revealed an unexpected beach, thus forming a symbolic dividing line between "old" and "new" Sottomarina. Today, the Murazzi di Sottomarina are located about one kilometer from the sea: this has allowed for a large-scale revival of coastal tourism. The Murazzo now connects the entire Venetian coast, especially the outer islands, like a cordon, leaving only the three bays open, thus preserving the lagoon's waters.

attention following the route you may encounter problems with sudden changes, such as prohibited passage or closed crossings etc... check the gps for short alternative routes to rejoin the original route.

the paths of this pine forest are really fun and in some places they also require a certain driving skill; the only problem is to follow them in the right direction since there are no signs and the risk is to make a mistake and crash into someone who is following them in the right direction; we ourselves made a mistake a few times in the first part of the route, then luckily we met two local cyclists who very kindly accompanied us for the whole journey following it in the right direction.

Attention, we can't go any further here at the moment!

Good opportunity to get to the other side of the water here.
