Venetian Arsenal (Former Montezemolo Barracks), Palmanova

Highlight • Historical Site

The imposing building of the "Deposito delle Monizioni" or "Fontego Pubblico" (Food Warehouse), also called the Arsenal, was built starting in 1596 under Superintendent Zuanne Bembo and expanded between 1616 and 1617. To the left of the entrance stands the dedication plaque with the coat of arms, honoring the virtues of Superintendent Giovanni Nani, who had the building expanded in 1625. Ammunition, provisions, tools, and reserve artillery mounts were stored inside.

In the 19th century, the building was used as a barracks known as Montezemolo and remained in use until the mid-1990s, most recently housing the Pozzuolo Brigade.

It is currently being restored.

Path Along the City Walls

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Very nice path between the city wall and moat, on which you can walk around the city outside the walls in the countryside. But good shoes are recommended here - especially if the weather was a bit damp the day before.

Porta Cividale

Highlight • Historical Site

Porta Cividale was built in the first half of the 17th century and is covered in rustic white and gray stone. The balustrade connects the two watchtowers, and originally a stone-marching lion was placed on the façade, which was later shot down by French troops. In the upper part is the Military History Museum of Palmanova.
