Welcome to Venipedia
A free, data-driven resource all about Venice, Italy.
19,312 articles about Venice...and growing!


What is Venipedia?

Venipedia is a wiki-based website dedicated to the study of the city of Venice, Italy. It is intended as a repository for unique information and data primarily collected by the Venice Project Center at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. With decades of projects dedicated to the study of Venetian architecture, art, bridges, canals, churches, ecosystems, infrastructure, tourism, transportation, and more, we are now releasing our data to the world through this site.

There are already many Venetian resources on the internet, including both the English and Italian Wikipedias and various Italian-language sites. While these resources are adequate for some purposes, there are also some problems associated with these sources. For example, Wikipedia is a general-knowledge encyclopedia that provides neither detailed information nor concrete data.

This website aims to fill the gap of of an English-language, data-driven website about Venice. Please check back regularly for updates.
