Description

Experience a guided visit to Palazzo Mocenigo, which is located in the heart of Venice not too far from the Grand Canal. With its new layout involving 20 rooms on the noble floor (piano nobile) it reproduces the arrangements of an aristocratic Venetian residence and shows the evolution of trends in fashion, costumes and fabrics. The selection of Venetian costumes are displayed together with antique textiles, a collection of precious Renaissance glasses and a display of instruments used in the past to distill perfumes. The tours ends with an extraordinary new display dedicated to the history of perfumes and essences. If you want to learn more about the history of Venice from a different perspective, this tour is for you!
