No, Cornelia Funke just went there. Venice later became the setting of her book The Thief Lord, and your question probably comes from the details of Venice shown, which is really based on her experience and memories from traveling there. Cornelia Funke was born in Germany, in the small town of Dorsten, North-Rhine Westphalia.

Translation of Ecce Romani Book 1 Chapter 9?
Goodbye! When she gets up, Cornelia walks quietly out of her own house and runs through the fields to her friend's house. It's not light yet, but nothing scares Cornelia. Nobody sees her. There are no slaves working in the fields. And the doorman is sleeping. When she goes in, Cornelia does not wake the doorman. Cornelia goes into Flavia's room and tries to wake her up. Still Flavia sleeps. Cornelia tries again. Flavia, half-asleep, says, "Who is it? Why are you bothering me?" Cornelia responds, "It's Cornelia! Get up!" Flavia gets up. She is happy to see Cornelia and shouts, "What are you doing here?" Cornelia says, "Quiet, Flavia! Don't wake up the slaves! Come quietly with me into the fields. There nobody will be able to hear us." Cornelia quietly leads Flavia from the house to the fields. When the girls come to the trees, Cornelia says, "I am sad because Marcus and Sextus and Mother and Father and I are preparing to return to Rome today. The emperor wants to consult my father. Therefore it is necessary for us to leave immediately." Flavia shouts, "Why now, Cornelia? Why doesn't your father go alone? Why do you all have to leave together?" Cornelia responds, "I don't know, Flavia. But we have to leave at the second hour." Flavia cries, "Poor me! You all are returning to Rome. I have to stay here. Goodbye, Cornelia! Send me lots of letters! Do you promise?" Cornelia says, "I promise. And now goodbye!" Cornelia hugs Flavia and, crying, leaves.
