Palazzo Michiel dalle Colonne, Baroque palace in Cannaregio district, Venice, Italy.

The palace features a water loggia with arcades and a grand first piano nobile floor overlooking the northern bank of the Grand Canal.

Modified around 1700 by architect Antonio Gaspari, the structure transformed from its original Gothic-Byzantine design into a late Baroque architectural masterpiece.

The interior contains frescoes by Michelangelo Morlaiter and Francesco Zanchi, depicting allegorical themes such as Victory, Merit, and Peace.

The palace stands near the junction of Rio del Santissimi Apostoli with the Grand Canal, next to Palazzo Michiel del Brusà.

The building served as offices for government ministries and underwent a major reconstruction after the Martinengo family inherited it in the mid-19th century.
