Giacomo Casanova sentenced to prison – 12th September 1755


The very naughty adventurer, writer and famous lover was sentenced to 5 years imprisonment in Venice without a trial for affront to religion and common decency!!! You don’t say!!!??

Giacomo Casanova is remembered for his many love affairs; in popular culture his name is now synonymous with that of a "womaniser".

However, Casanova was the epitome of the eighteenth century gentleman - educated, adventurous and a great traveller. Throughout his life he worked as a spy, professional gambler and librarian. His biography "Story of My Life" was published after his death in 1798.

And, so important were his adventures, Bibliothèque Nationale de France purchased the memoirs of Giacomo Casanova for a cool €7 million!!!!! There must be some very interesting stories in there!!??
