Palazzo Patriarcale, Religious palace in San Marco district, Venice, Italy

The Palazzo Patriarcale stands next to St Mark's Basilica, featuring a classical Venetian design with multiple floors and formal architectural elements.

The building became the new headquarters for the Patriarchate of Venice after St Mark's Basilica transitioned to a cathedral following the Venetian Republic's fall.

The palace contains the Diocesan Museum, which opened in 2007 and displays religious artifacts and art collections from Venice's ecclesiastical history.

Visitors can access the palace through the Piazzetta dei Leoncini, where the main entrance faces the northern side of St Mark's Basilica.

Between 1894 and 1903, the palace served as residence for Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto, who later became Pope Pius X.
