Ca' Rezzonico
|
|
| This quite extended area, which comprehends two main districts (Santa Croce and Dorsoduro) characterised by many narrow streets and little channels, is very close to the main important Venice sights, but in the meantime is less turistic and more quiet than the others. In the area it is located the Venice University, and many schools. |

Detailed map of Santa Croce area
Discover the sumptuous Palace of Cà Rezzonico, which hosts the 18th century Venice Museum with many works of art by Canaletto and Tiepolo. Very close to the museum, you will find Campo San Barnaba and the famous Ponte dei Pugni, a bridge on whose top, in ancient times, traditional fights used to take place between rival factions of Venice. The area is very rich on art and characterised by many important churches, such as the Church of San Sebastiano, one of the Renaissance jewels and the well-know Scuola Grande dei Carmini. If you are looking for a quiet area, very close to the main important Venice’s attractions, this is your right place!
