Venice during the Regatta Storica🚣· 04.09.1966


For many families, a trip to Venice was already an essential part of a holiday on the northern Adriatic coast.

These photographs show the traditional Regata Storica — an event that remains one of Venice’s annual highlights to this day: decorated boats, historic gondolas and crowds lining the Grand Canal.

Between St. Mark’s Square, the Rialto Bridge and the smaller canals, memories were created that still carry their unique charm decades later.
