“Detourism”, the official Town of Venice Tourist communication Service Newsletter, today presents the Museum of Palazzo Grimani in Venice! Enjoy your reading!
The Museum of Palazzo Grimani.
FAMOUS THROUGHOUT EUROPE AS EARLY AS THE 16TH CENTURY FOR ITS ANTIQUITY COLLECTION
As early as the 16th century, the Palazzo Grimani, near campo Santa Maria Formosa, was already a house-museum famous all over Europe for its rich collection of antiques. The Palazzo, ancient home of the Grimani family, one of the most famous in Venice, was purchased by the Italian State in 1981, and reopened to the public in 2008 after a long period of renovation. Today it owes its fame to its frescoes, stucco work and precious marble sculptures, as well as to the collection of over 130 antique sculptures in the Tribuna Grimani.
