1
Venetian masks were regulated by law
In the 1700s, mask-wearing in Venice became so widespread that the government imposed strict rules on when and where they could be worn — including during gambling, festivals, and even political debates!
2
Bigoli in Salsa was a sailor’s staple in the kitchen of venitians
This hearty dish of thick whole-wheat pasta, onions, and salted fish was once popular with Venetian sailors and laborers. Easy to preserve and packed with flavor, it became a fasting favorite — and today, a comforting classic.
3

In the 13th century, Venice officially moved all glass furnaces to Murano due to the risk of fire. The city’s dense wooden buildings made it too dangerous but the decision helped Venice guard its valuable glassmaking secrets more closely.
