Museo di Palazzo Mocenigo

The 18th century was the final, and perhaps most iconic, great season of flowering of all kinds of art in Venice. Visitors can take a journey through this splendid period with a single ticket valid for three museums. First stop is the unmissable Ca’ Rezzonico, one of the most beautiful palazzos on the Grand Canal, an amazing treasure chest of masterpieces, with magnificent paintings, period furniture, furnishings and frescoed rooms. What was the aristocratic residence of the Mocenigo family in San Stae, on the other hand, houses collections of textiles, original costumes and an intriguing section devoted the history of perfume. The charming birthplace of dramatist Carlo Goldoni, the great 18th century reformer of Italian comedy, houses a theatre studies library.
