Historical notes
Campo Santa Margherita is in the heart of the Dorsoduro district, on the route to Piazza San Marco via Accademia, halfway between Piazzale Roma and the Accademia bridge, it is one of the oldest and liveliest areas of Venice. Next to the eighteenth-century neoclassical church, we find the famous "Ponte dei Pugni", which was used as a front to resolve city disputes with fists; the team that conquered the bridge won and the losers ended up in the water. Here in 1585 the War of the Fists took place between two important city villages: the Nicolotti of San Nicolò dei Mendicoli and the Castellani of San Pietro di Castello.
Campo Santa Margherita, less than 1 minute walk away, is the lively and young hub of the city's nightlife, a meeting point for an aperitif with bacari, restaurants and clubs of all kinds. Near the apartment, there are the two oldest shipyards in the city, Tramontin in Campiello Sartorio and San Trovaso not far away, also on the Fondamenta Ognissanti on the opposite side, opposite is the bacaro of the same name which is always very popular. Dorsoduro was at the center of ancient Venice. This part of the city was one of the first to be built as it was located on a small island of compact soil, on which houses and artisan workshops could be built.
“Ea casa de mì2” like “Ea casa de mì” are magical places, where you can peacefully experience the spirit of the most beautiful city in the world, there are no words that can fully describe Venice and its places, only living them in the heart of it leaves a unique and indelible memory. The slow rhythms and everyday life that flows all around are the starting point for an unforgettable holiday. Our homes represent a safe place to rest, after returning from the long walks that Venice requires.

Historical and cultural insights
The Dorsoduro district occupies the southern sector of the city and extends over 92 hectares; the island of Giudecca belongs to this district from an administrative point of view. The area is made up of a group of islands which includes the districts of S. Nicolò dei Mendicoli, Angelo Raffaele, SS. Gervasio and Protasio, San Basilio, S. Agnese etc., and as some want, also of San Benedetto, and San Trenità.
It is believed that it was so called because its terrain rose above the surrounding area like a ridge and was at the same time very firm and consistent. The other name it had of Scopulo (rock) would confirm its elevation and consistency[1]. Braccolani, however, in his Brief News of the Island of S. Nicolò dei Mendicoli, suggests that Dorsoduro or, as it is called in some chronicles, Dossoduro, comes from the Dosduri family, one of the first to come from Padua to live there. Negri in Soggiorno in Venezia by Edmondo Lundylo would derive from deosumturris (beyond the tower), conjecturing that the Castel Forte di San Rocco, beyond which Dorsoduro extended, was equipped with some large tower, following the custom of the times. This part of the city was semi-deserted in the early days because it was exposed to the incursion of the barbarians. But Orso Partecipazio, elected doge in 864, assigned it to the homes of those men who were employed in his service, and who were called excusati because they were excused and free from any other office, or almost shielded, or squires. The Basegio, Polani and Bambolani families were also concentrated here, having already been banished due to hatred of parties, and then recalled from exile at the request of Emperor Ludovico. From all the districts making up the ancient Dorsoduro, except those of San Benedetto and Santa Trenità, if they were included therein, the current Sestier of Dorsoduro was formed, which mainly embraces the Giudecca, and the nearby island of San George Major.
