Battle of Chioggia



The naval Battle of Chioggia took place in June 1380 in the lagoon off Chioggia, Italy, between the Venetian and the Genoese fleets, who had captured the little fishing port in August the preceding year. The port was of no consequence, but its location at an inlet to the Venetian Lagoon threatened Venice at her very doorstep.
