If you are planning to visit Palmanova town, in Italy, here you’ll find the best tips on things to do in the village, with a sightseeing map on the most relevant points of interest to enjoy, so you can easily imagine and organize your trip: WHAT to see, HOW to plan your visit, and WHY to discover Palmanova.

Built in 1593 by the Republic of Venice, Palmanova is a fortress-city preserved in exemplary conditions.
With its perfect nine-pointed star shape, Palmanova is at the same time a model Renaissance city and an example of military architecture.

Its fortified structure is organised around three circular lines of defence, with an urban fabric arranged along radial axes.

It was founded by the Serenissima Republic of Venice with the aim of preventing the expansionist ambitions of the Habsburgs and the Turks.
On 7 October 1593, the first stone of the Fortress was laid. Two defensive lines were built with ramparts and ravelins, and within these the urban layout of the city was created. A third fortified wall was added in the Napoleonic era. In 1960, Palmanova was proclaimed a National Monument.
Since 9 July 2017, Palmanova has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site, one of the “Venetian Works of Defence between the 16th and 17th centuries: Stato da Terra – western Stato da Mar” (Mainland Domain and western Domain of the Sea).
