- The Doge of Venice was the ruler of the Venetian Republic, who would hold this position for life. The Doge’s Palace was the beating political heart of the Republic. Despite the Republic falling in 1797, Professor Michael Scott claims the building still holds a 'smell of power'.
Guiding us through this mighty labyrinthine, 3D scanners help to reveal the hidden treasures inside this incredible building, which once housed generations of Doges.

Collective leadership by the property holders
That Chamber of the Great Council has a 25 meter span flat ceiling. How was that achieved with 500 year old construction materials? (In addition, the elaborate decoration makes it extra sensitive to shifts in its supports.) I feel there has to be some arches and suspension rods hidden up there somewhere.
Good question, he neglected to mention the room was 11.50 meters high. So I guess Architecture wasn't on his mind when recording.
I'm Venetian. They used some techniques derived from ship craftsmen, using the woods coming from the Asiago plateau (using the Brenta river to ship them to Venice) and an intricate design of suspensions and counterbalances which create a horizontal tension just above the ceiling and under the floor to compensate gravity compression. In spite of that, I would say that there are other few magnificent examples. The "Salone dei Cinquecento" in Palazzo Vecchio, in Florence, is another great example of hall of power. Truly impressive, it has a similar size, and the entire building is massive (almost as high as the big Ben in London, 95m).
And don't forget beyond Venice and Florence, in that time, Paris. The french kings moved from the huge Fontainebleau palace to the even larger Louvre. Here they built some impressive hall, like the Great Gallery (460m long, 13m wide, 15m high). Unlucky today it's only 288m, after the works to transform the royal chateau into a museum (the kings were living mostly in Versailles, in the final years of the monarchy).
@@Squagliafrittata Now I want to see an entire 30 minute RUclips video just on how they made that ceiling.
