Built to be a Utopian fortress of sorts, had real issues of getting people to migrate from the south to the city and had issues maintaining a population to maintain the city.
Great place to visit if you get the chance 🙂

To this day, no one has never successfully captured Palmanova with a pedrero cannon.
Looks like the Strangers to Ourselves album cover.
Not much to see, but definitely worth a walk around.
Cool photo. Looks like those bastions would have had trouble defending each other though. Anyone have any sources for the defenses of the city when it was still a manned fort? We’re there demilunes or similar to provide better fields of fire?
I built sth like this in Cities Skyline
I used to go out with a chick from Palmanova lol
Now that’s what I call a gated community.
Nah, someone’s gonna turn that town into a philosopher stone
Looks like the LHC
