The Doge’s Palace is a stunning example of Venetian Gothic architecture and a symbol of Venice’s political and cultural legacy. Once the residence of the Doge and the seat of Venetian government, it’s now a museum that lets visitors step into the grandeur of the former Republic. From exploring lavish halls like the Chamber of the Great Council to walking the eerie Bridge of Sighs that connects to the old prison, every part of the palace tells a story. People visit to admire intricate artwork by masters like Tintoretto and Veronese, learn about the city’s history, and experience one of Venice’s most iconic buildings from the inside.
