Palmanova – The Perfectly Geometrical City. |
Built in 1593 in northern Italy, Palmanova is famous for its concentric citadel structure, called a star fort.
It was designed by the architect Vincenzo Scamozzi in hopes of
achieving social harmony and well-being for it's people through the
beauty and symmetrical perfection of the city. Today the city is home to
about 5,000 people and a very popular tourist site, but in order to
really appreciate this wonder you have to see it from above. This is one
city I would really love to see with my own eyes.
