A WINGED HORSE FOR AMALFI A wooden galleon that won the southwestern Italian city of Amalfi its first victories in a regatta against its ancient maritime rivals has been restored to its former vividly-colored glory. The Vittoria is now on permanent display in Amalfi’s spectacular Arsenale, a masonry cross-vaulted shipyard built on the seafront in the 11th century. There is no other example of medieval architecture like it in the world. Amalfi’s Regatta winner “Vittoria” restored | The History Blog
