Galleria dell’Accademia

This monumental art gallery contains the world’s most complete 13th- to 18th- Century art collections. These include masterpieces by the Venetian greats of the Renaissance period such as Bellini, Giorgione, Titian, Tintoretto, Veronese and more. These masterful Venetian artists not only shaped the history of Venice art, but European art.

Ca' Pesaro - International Gallery of Modern Art

The core of the collection is made up of award-winning works exhibited or purchased at the Venice Biennale in the early decades of 20th century. Along the itinerary are displayed important 19th and 20th century paintings and sculptures, including masterpieces by Klimt, Chagall, Kandinsky, as well as a rich selection of works by Italian artists and an important section of graphic art.

Doge’s Palace

The Doge's Palace, Venice, has façades which date from 1309-1424, designed by Giovanni and Bartolomeo Buon. The palace, started in the ninth century, several times rebuilt, and completed in the Renaissance period, forms part of that great scheme of town-planning which was carried out through successive centuries.

St Mark's Square

The heart of Venice, home to St Mark’s Church and the Doge’s Palace. There are no monuments in the large square due to the Venetians not wanting to promote individual glory above communal progress. Thus a statue planned by Napoleon of himself never materialised.

Rialto Bridge

Visit the area around the Rialto Bridge – until the 19th Century the only bridge across the Grand Canal. Michelangelo’s was among the designs rejected to replace the original wooden bridge.

Bridge of Sighs

Famous in poetry and legend for linking the Doge’s Palace to the prisons and so offering the condemned their last view of the outside world.
