Ca' Loredan, Administrative building in San Marco, Venice, Italy.

The four-story Ca' Loredan palace stands on the Grand Canal near Rialto Bridge, featuring a central portico with five raised Corinthian arches.

Built in 1300 as a Venetian-Byzantine warehouse for the Boccasi family, the building changed ownership through centuries until Venice municipality acquired it in 1867.

The Council Hall contains notable artworks by Renaissance painters Benedetto Caliari, Gregorio Lazzarini, and Bonifacio Veronese, representing Venetian artistic traditions.

The palace functions as Venice City Hall alongside Ca' Farsetti, connected through four elevated walkways and maintaining municipal administrative services.

Elena Lucrezia Cornaro, born in this palace in 1646, received recognition as the first woman to obtain a university degree in 1678.
