One of the most visited Italian cities is Venice , which every year receives hundreds of thousands of tourists who want to fall in love with the charms of the city of canals. It is clear that riding a gondola through a canal is the most interesting thing you can do there and what has made the city the most famous, but there are many more things to see and do that are equally spectacular. Among the sights of Venice is the Mocenigo Palace , a true marvel of architecture.
This palace is in the Santa Cruz district, right next to the Grand Canal , so you will pass through there yes or yes when taking a walk through the city. Exactly, it is between the Rialto Bridge and St. Mark’s Square. It was the official residence of the Mocenigo family from the 17th to the mid-20th century. This family is one of the most important in the history of the city since it has contributed 7 Venetian governors in almost 400 years.
As soon as you enter, you will be captivated by the patio that welcomes you, with a purely Italian-style garden that blends perfectly with the Gothic style of the building. The palace is used to hold numerous events, both public and private, and many people choose it as the place to celebrate their wedding or the baptism or communion of their children. The hall that is used for events can accommodate almost 150 people.
The palace has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and its decoration is with antique furniture, a fantastic opportunity to discover what the Venetian way of life was like centuries ago. The master bedroom has 3 balconies, all of them with views of the Grand Canal . Next to it is a house where you can stay and that envelops you in all the magic that Venetian history can offer you, with views of the interior of the palace and the Grand Canal.
