Stories You'll Hear:

  • The Bridge of Sighs: It got its name from the sighs of prisoners catching one last glimpse of Venice before being locked away. Talk about a dramatic exit.
  • Venice’s secret mailboxes: Letting citizens anonymously accuse each other of crimes—no proof needed. Basically, a Renaissance-era gossip hotline.
  • Saint Mark’s: His body was smuggled into Venice in a barrel of pork to fool guards. Because when in doubt… hide your saint in meat.
