There are many beautiful islands in the world, where there is a crowd of tourists for 12 months of the year. People come from far and wide to see these islands.

The disease of plague was spread in Italy,

but then something happened that now no one is allowed to go to this island. It is said that whoever went here to unveil the secret of Poveglia Island, most of them never returned. In fact, in the 16th century, a disease called plague was spreading very fast in Italy, due to which many people in Italy were either dying due to this disease. Or they had reached the verge of death. In the whole of Europe, the effect of this disease was maximum in the city of Italy itself.

Quarantine station built on Poveglia Island

Because this disease was spreading very fast from one person to another, the Italian government decided to shift all the patients suffering from the plague to Poveglia Island. Because it was an isolated island, this place was used as a plague quarantine station. Not only this, people who died due to this disease were buried on this island.

Gradually this place was filled with sick people and at one point it came that lakhs of patients started living here. Due to being a quarantine station, sick people were kept there for a maximum of 40 days. But the situation was so bad that whoever was once brought to this island could not get a chance to go back home from there.

1 lakh 60 thousand people were burnt alive

some historians also say that about 1 lakh 60 thousand people were burnt alive on this island simultaneously so that the increasing number of sick people could be reduced here. Shortly after the devastating orgy of the plague, a disease called black fever once again knocked on this country, and once again Italy had to deal with an incurable disease. Like the plague, there was no cure for black fever once again knocked this country, and once again Italy had to deal with an incurable disease. Like the plague, there was no cure for black fever in Italy. Many people died due to this disease, and the dead bodies of people who died of the disease were brought to Poveglia Island and left just like that. Due to this, this place had become like hell on earth.
