Museo Ca' Rezzonico

What makes it special

A grandiose palazzo

Of all splendid palaces lining Canal Grande, Ca’ Rezzonico is arguably the most sumptuous, showcasing outstanding examples of Venetian Baroque and Rococo architecture and décor.

Signature

Ca’ Rezzonico’s intricate marble facade is one of the most striking on the waterfront. Inside, the ceremonial staircase, the ballroom and the gilded apartments are embellished with magnificent Murano glass chandeliers and ceiling frescoes by Tiepolo.

Time travel

As you walk through the nearly 20 rooms on three floors, each retaining decorative objects and intricately carved period furniture, you'll glimpse into the lavish life of Venetian aristocrats of the time.

Farmacia Ai do San Marchi

On the third floor, explore the three rooms of a historic pharmacy. The shop houses 183 majolica jars of 18th-century remedies. The laboratory features a fireplace and stove. The back room is covered by a boiserie in painted fir-wood and has additional majolica vases.

Museum Shop

Like other Civic Museums in Venice, the shop offers a wide range of items, from books and prints to unique creations by local artisans.
