VENICE Pasquale Cicogna (1585-1595) Medal 1593 for the completion of the construction of the fortress of Palmanova - Voltolina 692 CU (g 25.74 - 43 mm) R Risen in 1593 at the behest of the Republic of Venice, Palmanova represents a masterpiece of Renaissance military architecture. Its distinctive nine-pointed star shape, designed by Giulio Savorgnan, maximized the fortress's defensive capabilities while minimizing vulnerabilities. Built as a bulwark against Ottoman expansionist aims, Palmanova soon became an important strategic and commercial center. Over the centuries, Palmanova passed under the rule of the Habsburgs, the French and the Kingdom of Italy, always retaining its military importance. - SPL
