Itinerary

Doge's Palace
While visiting the Doge's Palace, in the heart of Venice, visitors step into the historic seat of power of the Republic of Venice.
The tour begins in the grand inner courtyard and continues through the magnificent institutional halls, where the Doge and the city’s magistrates once met. Here visitors can admire gilded ceilings, extraordinarily rich decorations, and masterpieces by Venetian artists such as Tintoretto, who painted the monumental Paradise in the Hall of the Great Council.
The visit then proceeds to the Doge’s apartments and the courtrooms, where the Republic’s sentences were pronounced. Crossing the famous Bridge of Sighs, visitors finally reach the ancient prisons, with their narrow corridors and stone cells, where many prisoners were held, including the famous Giacomo Casanova.
The palace thus offers a fascinating journey through the art, history, and mysteries of Venice in its golden age.

Museo Correr
The Museo Correr, located on the opposite side of Piazza San Marco, tells the story of the history, art, and daily life of Venice through the centuries.
During the visit, tourists can admire collections of paintings, sculptures, maps, coins, and ship models that illustrate the maritime power of the Republic of Venice. One particularly fascinating section is the Royal Apartments, decorated in Neoclassical style, created during the period when Venice was under the rule of Napoleon Bonaparte and later the Austrian Empire.
The museum therefore offers a journey through the city’s history, allowing visitors to better understand the political, artistic, and cultural greatness of Venice in the past.

The museum also preserves ancient vases, engraved gems, coins, and other artifacts that testify to the great interest of Venetian Renaissance collectors in classical culture.

Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana
The Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana is one of the oldest and most prestigious libraries in Italy. Located in St. Mark’s Square in Venice, it is housed in the splendid Renaissance building designed by Jacopo Sansovino in the 16th century.
Founded thanks to the bequest of Cardinal Bessarione, it preserves precious Greek and Latin manuscripts, illuminated codices, ancient maps, and numerous rare books. It is considered an important center for the study of Venetian history and humanism.
Its halls, decorated with works by artists such as Tiziano and Paolo Veronese, also make it a place of great artistic value.
