Chronology

Interactive Chronologies with maps are available in the section Changes Navigation

  • June 810: The Franks attacked the lagoons of Venice both from the sea and from the mainland, quickly conquering the more peripheral centers such as Grado. In particular, they reached as far as Albiola, a very short distance from the capital, Malamocco.
  • September 810: During the final battle, which took place in the lagoon waters behind Malamocco, the Frankish fleet, awkward in maneuvering among the intricate lagoon weaves of canals and slums, was easy prey for the agile Venetian boats. The invaders were annihilated.
