Ca' Tron, Renaissance palace on Canal Grande, Venice, Italy

The L-shaped palace features a facade in Istrian stone with asymmetrical placement of portals and central openings across multiple floors.

The Tron family, which produced Doge Niccolo Tron in 1471, constructed this palace in the late 16th century under Jacopo Sansovino's influence.

The interior walls display frescoes by Louis Dorigny alongside a Diana and Endymion painting by Jacopo Guarana with decorative stucco elements.

The Università Iuav di Venezia owns the building, which now serves as the Department of Design and Planning in Complex Environments.

Emperor Joseph II attended a grand ball at the palace in 1775, hosted by Andrea Tron during a period of notable political gatherings.
