The conservation of the richly detailed Porta della Carta was an early project of Venice in Peril, undertaken from 1976-1979
Alongside conservation projects themselves, Venice in Peril Fund has supported conservation training in Venice.
The Loggetta in Piazza San Marco, built by Jacopo Sansovino in 1537, was crushed when the Campanile collapsed in 1902. It was rebuilt and later Venice in Peril Fund undertook conservation in 1972-1974.
