Marriage to the sea - Ascension day, May 20th, 2012

The Doge of the Serenissima used this rite to demonstrate the Republic's dominion in the gulf.
The doge and his entourage embarked on the Bucintoro. On reaching the mouth of San Nicolò port, the Doge threw a gold ring into the sea.
Every year on Ascension day the Mayor of Venice, civic dignitaries and religious and military representatives leave Saint Mark's Square and sail to the Port of S. Nicolò where the ritual ring throwing takes place.
Hotel Al Piave in Venice will be glad to give you all the information about this event.
