Apartments in Jesolo

The City of Jesolo, once “Equilium”, named after the main island of the lagoon that formerly spread throughout the territory, boasts a rich history closely linked to that of Venice. Since the Early Venetian inhabitants, famous in the Mediterranean basin as horse breeders (the toponym actually incorporates the word horse) to the ancient Romans, Jesolo became a real autonomous municipality only with the advent of Napoleon, in 1806. Not before the “Great Land Reclamation” (1920-1930) of the first post-war reconstruction, with the subsequent sowing of crops of wheat, corn and sugar beet, fruit trees and vineyards, we can witness the agricultural revival of the municipality and its touristic flowering. In that period began the construction of the first bathing establishments for helio therapeutic treatments -solar therapies- as well as of the first hotels and restaurants. For those with a passion for history, one can visit the “Antiche Mura” or “Ancient Walls”, an archaeological site still preserving the remains of Santa Maria of Equilium Cathedral, built on an earlier Early Christian building dedicated to San Mauro, or the “Torre del Caligo” or “Caligo Tower”, an ancient fort dating back to the early Middle Ages, of which today only the base remains. For sportsmen, the offers are interesting, with excellent centers for sailing, tennis, go karting, skeet shooting, beach volley, windsurfing and golf. Nature lovers have at their disposal the fishing valleys and the Lagoon of the Mort. Finally, for the fun lovers, the Aqualandia water park has been elected several times the best in Italy; the Sea Life aquarium and tropicarium is really fascinating for the whole family, while the Pista Azzurra is definitely a true icon in the international karting scene and much more… Then you can not ignore the proximity to historic cities like Venice, Padua, Treviso…
