10 Best Museums in Venice | Condé Nast Traveler

"One of the best places to get a crash course in Venetian history, Museo Correr tells the story of the city’s robust development, from its founding to its union with Italy in the 19th century. The Napoleonic Wing once housed the residences and offices of some of the Venetian Republic’s kings and emperors. The Neoclassical Rooms house works by the prominent sculptor Antonio Canova, while the Imperial Apartments of the Royal Palace offer a glimpse at life as an empress. The Procuratie Nuove, designed by the architect Vincenzo Scamozzi, display more diverse aspects of Venetian life." - Jenna Scatena
