The Crazy Engineering of Venice

August 4, 2024

Have you ever wondered how Venice, a city built on water, became one of the most powerful and wealthy cities in history? In this video, we uncover the extraordinary story of Venice, from its humble beginnings as a refuge for Roman citizens fleeing the Huns, to its rise as a medieval engineering marvel.

Discover how the Venetians transformed a muddy lagoon into a thriving metropolis with no roads, no land, and no fresh water. We'll explore the ingenious techniques they used to build stable foundations, construct iconic canals and bridges, and develop a unique system for fresh water and waste management.

Join us as we model Venice's complex infrastructure and reveal the secrets behind its lasting success. Be sure to stick around until the end of this video to learn more about our next giveaway.
