Doge's Palace

A masterpiece of Gothic architecture, the building and its sculptural decoration date from various periods. The interior, with works by artists such as Titian, Veronese, Tintoretto, A.Vittoria and Tiepolo, includes vast council chambers, superbly decorated residential apartments, and austere prison cells. Along the facades of the Palace run loggias that overlook St. Mark’s Square and the lagoon. The combined entrance ticket to the St. Mark’s Square Museums grants access to the Doge’s Palace, Museo Correr, Museo Archeologico Nazionale and Monumental Rooms of Biblioteca Marciana.

Natural History Museum

Housed in the Fontego dei Turchi Palace at the Grand Canal, the museum is an institution that coordinates and conducts scientific research in the territory, ensuring the maintenance and increase of scientific collections, organizing educational activities and services to the citizens. The new, evocative and engaging layout has a modern and original museological facility.

Reviewed By zubenel57 - Dundee, United Kingdom

This museum is situated on the south bank of the Grand canal where the nearest ferry terminal is at San Stae and we got entry via our Venezia Unica museum pass. The museum housed collections of flora, fauna, palaeontology & ethnography which was amassed from the world's continents by Venice's eminent explorers. I have visited a number of Natural history museums in the past but where this museum excelled was in the use of lighting and 3-D positioning of exhibits. I particularly enjoyed the fossil, seashell and butterfly sections. There were a number of local school groups in the museum at the time we were there, as it is a place that would be educationally good for children.

Museo di Zoologia Adriatica Giuseppe Olivi

At the Museum "Giuseppe Olivi" visitors can examine many Adriatic organisms and learn about their characteristics and the typical marine and brackish environments of this area. In each room, descriptive panels and multimedia stations introduce themes concerning the loss of biodiversity, the fragility of ecosystems and the vulnerability of species. These presentations are aimed to provide insights into the relationship between man and sea ecosystems, tradition and innovation in the use of resources, and the future of managing activities. We hope the museum "Giuseppe Olivi" shall contribute to the raising of respect and responsibility towards the sea, an inheritance which, today more than ever, requires a sustainable approach to be managed.
