The MOSE project is supposed to protect Venice from high tides, with mobile barriers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOSE_Project

Unfortunately it's been under planning first and then construction for decades, mired by corruption scandals, delays, and billions of Euros in cost overruns. It's currently scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2021, having first been put out to tender in 1975.
