Ep 222 - Poveglia: Italy's Island of the Dead

Off the coast of Venice sits an island no one will approach. Poveglia carries centuries of dark history, and the scale of what happened there is nearly impossible to comprehend.

Today, it sits abandoned, overgrown, and rarely visited. But that does not mean it is empty. Boat captains refuse to moor there, even in storms. Plans to reclaim it have come and gone. Still, its reputation endures, shaped by grief, silence, and soil that is more ash than earth.

We navigate the mist of the Venetian Lagoon to uncover why Poveglia remains one of Italy's most feared and forbidden places, and what happens when the forgotten refuse to stay that way.
