"Doge’s Palace was probably built between the 10th and 11th centuries on the basis of a fortified central core. This nucleus was constituted with a central body with towers in the corners forming one of the masterpieces of the Venetian Gothic. In the 12th century, the first restructuring was carried out with the duke Sebastiano Ziani, who transformed the fort into an elegant palace. Later in 1200 a new expansion was realized."

Photographed using a GoPro Hero4 in a busy environemnt. I focused my photogrpahy only on this pillar from different distances which is why most of the palace was not captured in the model.
