#Chioggia

The city is situated on a small island at the southern entrance to the Venetian Lagoon, about 25 kilometers south of Venice.

The name of the city was changed frequently to Clodia, Cluza, Clugia, Chiozza and Chioggia. The oldest documents mentioning Chioggia date back to the 6th century AD, when it was part of the Byzantine Empire. Chioggia was destroyed by Italy's King Pippin in the 9th century, but rebuilt around a new salt pan industry. In the Middle Ages, Chioggia proper was known as Clugia major. Free commune and episcopal capital from 1110, later played an important role in the so-called the war of Chioggia between Genoa and Venice, conquered by Genoa in 1378 and finally by Venice in June 1380. Although the city remained largely autonomous, it was always subordinate to Venice from then on. On March 14, 1381, Chioggia entered into an alliance with Zadar and Trogir against Venice, and Chioggia was finally better protected by Venice in 1412, as Šibenik became the headquarters of the main customs office in 1412 and the seat of the salt consumer office with a monopoly on salt trade in Chioggi and all over the Adriatic Sea.
