If you wanted a no-frills adventure in Venice, this is not it. Explore the art of Venetian lace from the 16th to the 20th century at the Lace Museum and learn about the art of tatting (also known as lace)!
More than 200 rare and valuable objects are preserved in the open archive here, including drawings, photographs, and other lace charms.
On the first floor of the museum, you'll find four rooms packed with lacey-based items. Learn about the evolution of the art of lace-making in Venice over the centuries, and get up close to over 200 rare and precious examples.
During museum opening hours, you can even see skilled master lacemakers at work, custodians of an art handed down over the centuries.
