Italy: Map of the Venetian bastion fort Palmanova, from the Civitates Orbis Terrarum< / i> by Georg Braun (1541-1622), late 16th century-early 17th century

Palmanova is a town and municipality in northeastern Italy. It is an excellent example of a bastion / star fort of the design favoured in the Late Renaissance era. First built by the Venetians in 1593, the fort-town was designed by Vincenzo Scamozzi. A second phase of construction occurred between 1658 and 1690, with final fortifications completed under the Napoleonic domination of 1806-1813.
