History

Venetico Palazzo, A villa for Venetian Lords

Dating back to 1600s, the villa has been home to several generations of venetian and ottoman lords. Being empty for around 50 years, it was suffering from severe neglect. Now the villa is thoroughly restored, conserving as much of the original structure, fixtures and fittings as possible.

Fortezzza, A Venetian Fortress

The Fortezza is the citadel of the city of Rethymno in Crete, Greece. It was built by the Venetians in the 16th century, and was captured by the Ottomans in 1646. By the early 20th century, many houses were built within the citadel. These were demolished after World War II, leaving only a few historic buildings within the Fortezza. Today, the citadel is in good condition and is open to the public.
