Palazzo Malipiero

關於

Palazzo Malipiero is a palace in Venice, Italy. It is on the Grand Canal in the central San Samuele square.

It stands just across from the Palazzo Grassi Exhibition Center.

It is situated at the crossroads of the city's cultural and artistic areas. The splendid Italian garden with a view of the Grand Canal makes it even more unique.

Originally built in Byzantine times, the nine centuries' architectural history of the palace can be retraced in its complex structure: each generation of owners left its stamp of caring and fervour for the arts.

For some years from 1740 Giacomo Casanova lived in the Palazzo Malipiero. In spite of his young age (he was just 15 years old), he began his successful social life in these very rooms. Here he gave a broad demonstration of his innate gift for the art of love.
