It shows not just pictures but the complete interior context of upper-class Venetian society: ceiling paintings by Tiepolo and his circle, Pietro Longhi with genre scenes from the everyday life of Venetian citizens, furniture by Andrea Brustolon, Murano glass, porcelain and chinoiserie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The museum is part of the municipal MUVE network (Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia) and included in the MUVE Museum Pass. The same pass also covers, among others: the Doge&#8217;s Palace, Museo Correr, Palazzo Mocenigo, Casa Goldoni, Palazzo Fortuny, Ca&#8217; Pesaro, Museo di Storia Naturale, Museo del Vetro on Murano and Museo del Merletto on Burano. Check the price, included venues and validity on VisitMUVE in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The palazzo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The building itself is one of the most important Baroque palazzi on the Grand Canal. <strong>Baldassare Longhena<\/strong> began construction in 1649 for the Bon family \u2014 he is the most important Venetian Baroque architect (Santa Maria della Salute, Ca&#8217; Pesaro). At Longhena&#8217;s death in 1682 only the ground floor and mezzanine were finished; construction rested for decades. In 1750 the Rezzonico family (a risen patrician family from Como) bought the unfinished palazzo and had it completed in simplified form by <strong>Giorgio Massari<\/strong> \u2014 hence the name. In 1758 the Rezzonico family produced Pope Clement XIII, which for a time made the palazzo the Venetian family seat of a pope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After several changes of ownership in the 19th century (including the English poet Robert Browning, who died here in 1889), the palazzo was bought by the city of Venice in 1935 and opened as the Settecento museum in 1936.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Highlights \u2014 room by room<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The route runs across three floors. Ground floor: entrance hall with Brustolon furniture and the water staircase on the Grand Canal. First floor: the main state rooms with Tiepolo ceiling paintings. Second floor: Pietro Longhi, vedute and the lacquer cabinet. Note: due to the ongoing restoration programme, individual rooms or works can be temporarily inaccessible. Highlights in route order:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Water staircase (androne) and the Brustolon furniture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The entrance from the Grand Canal leads through the monumental water staircase (closed today, but visible) into the great courtyard. Here stand the first works by <strong>Andrea Brustolon (1662\u20131732)<\/strong> \u2014 the Veneto furniture maker who created elaborately carved pieces for the wealthy families of the Settecento. Most famous: a furniture ensemble with allegorical figures (Africa, Asia, Europe, America) and putti \u2014 art-historically central to the Venetian Rococo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. First floor \u2014 the ballroom (Sala da Ballo)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The largest hall of the palazzo, with a ceiling painting by <strong>Giovanni Battista Crosato (1751)<\/strong> \u2014 allegories of the four continents. Trompe-l&#8217;\u0153il architectural paintings on the walls simulate a far larger architecture than actually exists. The Rezzonico receptions took place here in the 18th century; today the hall is part of the route and is occasionally used for concerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Sala dell&#8217;Allegoria Nuziale \u2014 Tiepolo&#8217;s wedding fresco<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most important Tiepolo work in the house: the ceiling fresco <strong>&#8220;Allegory of the Marriage of Ludovico Rezzonico and Faustina Savorgnan&#8221; (1758)<\/strong> by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696\u20131770). Tiepolo was in his mid-60s, at the height of his career \u2014 three years later he left for the Spanish court in Madrid. The fresco shows the bridal couple in a chariot of clouds, surrounded by Apollo and allegorical figures of fame. It was painted for exactly this room and is among the most important surviving Tiepolo ceiling frescoes in their original location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Throne room \u2014 Tiepolo&#8217;s apotheosis frescoes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A further Tiepolo room with ceiling paintings \u2014 allegories of the apotheosis of the Rezzonico family, plus overdoor paintings by Giambattista Tiepolo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Sala dei Pastelli<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pastel room shows works by <strong>Rosalba Carriera (1673\u20131757)<\/strong> \u2014 the most important Venetian pastel painter and one of the few prominent women artists of her time. She established pastel portraiture as a genre in its own right and portrayed Europe&#8217;s high nobility. Several of her portraits hang here, often small-format and subtle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Second floor \u2014 the Pietro Longhi gallery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many visitors the most striking room: the collection of genre scenes by <strong>Pietro Longhi (1701\u20131785)<\/strong>. Longhi painted the everyday life of Venice&#8217;s patricians and citizens in small-format scenes \u2014 masked balls, Carnival costumes, writing lessons, visits to the tailor, the fortune teller, the hairdresser, the dancing master. One of the most famous pictures: <strong>&#8220;The Rhinoceros&#8221; (1751)<\/strong>, showing the appearance of an Indian rhinoceros exhibited in Venice in 1751 by a travelling show \u2014 Longhi paints not only the animal but also the masked spectators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For travellers tired of Renaissance gravity, the Longhi gallery is often the most surprising favourite stop in the house \u2014 pictures with wit, observation and honest social documentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Vedute \u2014 Canaletto and Guardi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two vedute by <strong>Antonio Canaletto (1697\u20131768)<\/strong>, the most famous Venetian view painter. Plus several works by <strong>Francesco Guardi (1712\u20131793)<\/strong> \u2014 Canaletto&#8217;s brother-in-law and stylistic counterpart: Canaletto precise and topographically documentary, Guardi atmospherically blurred. Comparing the two styles, you understand the transition from late Baroque to the pre-Romantic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. The lacquer cabinet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A small room of its own with lacquer work in the Venetian chinoiserie style \u2014 black and red lacquer furniture, exotic birds and Chinese landscape motifs. It reflects the late Republic&#8217;s fashion for referencing East Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. The pharmacy (Farmacia)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the upper part of the museum: a completely reconstructed 18th-century pharmacy with wooden shelves, majolica jars and glass bottles. It comes from the former pharmacy &#8220;Ai Do San Marchi&#8221; in San Stin \u2014 today a rare chance to see a complete Settecento shop interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tickets 2026: prices and options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Current prices can vary by season \u2014 the following values are a guide (as of spring 2026) and should be <strong>checked on the official site visitmuve.it before your visit<\/strong>. Ca&#8217; Rezzonico is part of the municipal MUVE network \u2014 from three visited MUVE museums the pass usually beats single tickets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<table class=\"tv-decision-matrix\"><caption>Ca&#8217; Rezzonico tickets 2026 \u2014 guide values<\/caption><thead><tr><th scope=\"col\">Ticket<\/th><th scope=\"col\">Price (approx.)<\/th><th scope=\"col\">Note<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Standard ticket (adults)<\/td><td>approx. \u20ac12\u201315<\/td><td>Full route across three floors<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Reduced ticket (15\u201325 years, EU students)<\/td><td>reduced<\/td><td>With ID<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Children under 14<\/td><td>free<\/td><td>Carry ID<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>MUVE Museum Pass<\/td><td>\u20ac50 (reduced \u20ac25)<\/td><td>Several municipal museums; check price\/venues\/validity in advance<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Audio guide (MUVE app)<\/td><td>included in admission<\/td><td>according to current official information; check languages in advance<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Practical tip:<\/strong> if you visit three or more MUVE museums during a Venice stay, the MUVE Museum Pass usually works out cheaper \u2014 it combines Ca&#8217; Rezzonico with the Doge&#8217;s Palace, Correr, Palazzo Fortuny and the island museums of Murano\/Burano.

Nevertheless, vaporetto access, the land entrance, routes or operations can be affected during stronger acqua alta. Above all between October and March, check current MUVE information and tide levels before your visit \u2014 for instance on our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treffpunkt-venedig.de\/en\/acqua-alta-venice\/\">acqua alta page with live tide levels<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">With children, and accessibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">With children<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ca&#8217; Rezzonico works better with children than the Accademia \u2014 the rooms are wider, the furniture and interiors easy to grasp, and the Pietro Longhi genre scenes tell stories that children can read visually. Recommendations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The ballroom<\/strong> \u2014 a very large hall with trompe-l&#8217;\u0153il wall paintings. Children quickly spot the optical illusion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Pietro Longhi gallery<\/strong> \u2014 small-format pictures with narrative scenes (masked ball, fortune teller, rhinoceros). Works like an 18th-century picture-story set.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Brustolon furniture<\/strong> \u2014 the carved allegories (Africa, Asia, Europe, America) with putti and animals are a wow element for children.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The pharmacy (Farmacia)<\/strong> \u2014 a complete 18th-century pharmacy with jars and bottles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tip:<\/strong> plan a maximum of 60\u201375 minutes with children under 10, then a break on Campo San Barnaba.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Accessibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to visitor information, Ca&#8217; Rezzonico offers lifts and low-barrier access; individual historic rooms, thresholds or narrow doors can still have restrictions \u2014 especially during the ongoing restoration programme. Visitors with limited mobility should check the current accessibility information on VisitMUVE in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Combining Ca&#8217; Rezzonico \u2014 what fits into one day?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>&#8220;Complete Dorsoduro day&#8221;:<\/strong> Accademia in the morning (9:00\u201312:00), lunch break on Campo San Barnaba.

A highlights version with the Tiepolo rooms + Pietro Longhi + the pharmacy is doable in 60 minutes.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Is Ca&#8217; Rezzonico included in the MUVE Museum Pass?<\/summary><div><p>Yes. The MUVE pass covers several municipal museums, including Ca&#8217; Rezzonico, the Doge&#8217;s Palace, Correr, Palazzo Mocenigo, Palazzo Fortuny, Ca&#8217; Pesaro and the island museums of Murano and Burano. Check the price, included venues and validity on VisitMUVE before buying \u2014 from three venues the pass usually beats single tickets.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>On which day is Ca&#8217; Rezzonico closed?<\/summary><div><p>All day Tuesday, plus 1 January and 25 December. Note: the Peggy Guggenheim Collection is also closed on Tuesdays \u2014 which makes the Dorsoduro day combination difficult on that day. Visit the Accademia instead.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Which works should I not miss?<\/summary><div><p>Four essential stops: Brustolon&#8217;s furniture ensemble on the ground floor, Tiepolo&#8217;s wedding fresco in the Sala dell&#8217;Allegoria Nuziale, the Pietro Longhi gallery on the second floor (with &#8220;The Rhinoceros&#8221;) and the pharmacy (Farmacia). Plus the Canaletto vedute and Rosalba Carriera&#8217;s pastel portraits. Due to restoration work the current hanging can differ.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Who was Pietro Longhi?<\/summary><div><p>A Venetian painter (1701\u20131785) who recorded the everyday life of Venice&#8217;s patricians and citizens in small-format genre scenes \u2014 masked balls, Carnival costumes, writing lessons, pharmacy visits, the famous &#8220;Rhinoceros&#8221; appearance of 1751. Stylistically he recalls Hogarth in England, but documents rather than strongly commenting. One of the best sources for understanding everyday life in the Venetian Settecento.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Who was Giambattista Tiepolo?<\/summary><div><p>Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (1696\u20131770) was the most important Venetian painter of the 18th century and one of the greatest fresco painters of the European late Baroque. He worked in Venice, W\u00fcrzburg (the Residence) and Madrid (the Royal Palace). Ca&#8217; Rezzonico holds several of his ceiling paintings; in Venice he can also be seen in the Scuola Grande dei Carmini and the Palazzo Labia. His son Giandomenico Tiepolo (1727\u20131804) is also represented in Ca&#8217; Rezzonico.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Is skip-the-line worth it for Ca&#8217; Rezzonico?<\/summary><div><p>In the shoulder seasons and on weekdays usually unnecessary \u2014 the queue is manageable. In high season (June\u2013August, Carnival weeks) online pre-booking with a guaranteed time slot can help, above all at weekends. Even then the entrance queue is usually shorter than at the Accademia.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Is Ca&#8217; Rezzonico accessible during acqua alta?<\/summary><div><p>During typical acqua alta events, usually yes. Dorsoduro lies higher than San Marco, the land entrance is higher than the historic Grand Canal water staircase, and the main rooms are on the upper floors. During stronger acqua alta, vaporetto access, the entrance or routes can be affected; check current MUVE information and tide levels before your visit.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Can I visit Ca&#8217; Rezzonico with children?<\/summary><div><p>Yes, well \u2014 better than the Accademia. The Brustolon furniture, the ballroom, the Pietro Longhi genre scenes and the reconstructed pharmacy work for children from 7\u20138 years. Plan a maximum of 60\u201375 minutes, then a break on Campo San Barnaba.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>How do I best combine Ca&#8217; Rezzonico?<\/summary><div><p>Best combination: Accademia in the morning + Ca&#8217; Rezzonico in the afternoon + optionally the Peggy Guggenheim in the late afternoon \u2014 the Dorsoduro art trio in one day. All three houses are 10\u201312 minutes apart on foot. Beware Tuesday: Ca&#8217; Rezzonico and Peggy are both closed \u2014 visit the Accademia + Punta della Dogana instead.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>Who was Robert Browning, and what is his connection to Ca&#8217; Rezzonico?<\/summary><div><p>The English poet Robert Browning (1812\u20131889) died on 12 December 1889 in Ca&#8217; Rezzonico while staying with his son Pen Browning, who had previously bought the palazzo. A memorial plaque commemorates this. The city of Venice acquired the palazzo in 1935 and opened the museum in 1936.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n<details><summary>How do I get to Ca&#8217; Rezzonico?<\/summary><div><p>Vaporetto <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treffpunkt-venedig.de\/en\/vaporetto-venice\/line-1\/\">line 1<\/a> (slow Grand Canal line) stops directly at Ca&#8217; Rezzonico \u2014 2 minutes on foot to the entrance. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treffpunkt-venedig.de\/en\/vaporetto-venice\/line-2\/\">Line 2<\/a> (express) stops at San Tom\u00e0 (10 min southwards) or Accademia (10 min westwards).
