The disastrous tidal storm-surges in 1966 and 2019 resulting into devastating flooding called for the completion of the grandest public work ever constructed in Italy. Saving Venice is preserving a unique jewel of the Unesco World Artistic Heritage, but further more protecting the residents. The measures of defense which have been implemented required the preservation of the delicate ecosystem of the lagoon in which the city is situated, raising the elevation of streets in the city, protecting principal monuments and last but not least, the construction of 78 gates capable of blocking the Adriatic Sea out. This tour has been designed for passionate and curious visitors, scholars and students and offers a visual presentation followed by a walk to see the works completed in the city and/or a boat cruise to the main inlet where 41 gates have been installed, so as to view the site and scope of the project. Understanding the the project in its whole requires learning about the context and the history, a fascinating and enriching experience.
