Fury in Venice as tourist scatters loved one’s ashes in Italian city’s iconic canal
Under Veneto laws, ashes can only be scattered in approved locations, including designated ‘Gardens of Remembrance’ in the cemeteries of San Michele, Mestre and Marghera, or on private land outside urban areas with the owner’s permission, according to the Daily Mail.
In natural settings, scattering is only allowed in limited areas, including parts of the Adriatic Sea at least 2,300 feet (700m) from the coast and a designated section of the northern lagoon behind San Michele cemetery. The ceremony must be authorised in advance in accordance with the deceased’s documented wishes and later reported to the relevant authorities.
St Mark’s Basin is not among the locations where ashes may be legally scattered.
