Admire the historical grandeur of Venice combined with an impressive collection of artwork at Ca' d'Oro. The magnificent Gothic palace was built in the 15th century as home to the influential Contarini family. It remained in private hands until the early 20th century, when its last owner, an avid art collector named Giorgio Franchetti, transferred it to the Italian state. A great architectural monument, the palace still houses Franchetti's collection, which includes the works of artists such as Titian, Jan van Eyck, and Anthony van Dyck. You'll find guided tours of the palace in different languages both for groups and individual visitors, but you'll want to book them in advance.

Amazing space and art gallery. Went in on the afternoon on the 4th February. Hardly anyone in which was incredible considering how busy Venice was due to carnival starting. Was great to have the place virtually to myself enjoy the place and art and get away from the crowds Managed to get straight in, no queues, nothing. Worth 6 euros

The set of paintings and gobelins is slightly poor. However, the Grand Channel view is perfect!
