Abstract

Porto Marghera, one of the largest industrial areas in Italy, and one of the most important European chemical hubs, was founded in 1918, just 5 km from the centre of Venice. The city had no more land, so they decided to fill the swamps of the lagoon: an area of 2000 hectares was created, with 40 km of roads, 135 km of railway lines and 18 km of navigable canals. This is the century-old heritage of Marghera explored by Andrea Segre in "Il pianeta in mare" [A Planet in the Sea], where contemporary and images of the past reveal the contradictions of such a peculiar microcosm.
