Palazzo Savorgnan

Palazzo Savorgnan, Baroque palace in Cannaregio, Venice, Italy.

Palazzo Savorgnan is a four-level palace on the Canale di Cannaregio, to the right of Palazzo Priuli Manfrin. Its ashlar ground floor has a central rectangular portal flanked by single lancet windows, leading into a colonnaded portego. The two noble floors carry stone-framed openings with masks and balustrades, a wide serliana at the centre and two arched windows on each side; the second floor also bears two large coats of arms, and the attic repeats the arrangement with smaller square windows.

Built in the 17th century for the noble Savorgnan family, the palace is attributed to Giuseppe Sardi, inspired by Baldassare Longhena; Elena Bassi suggests Antonio Gasperi may have completed it. A serious fire in 1788 damaged much of the building, including perhaps its large 18th-century dormer, beginning a decline that lasted until the Galvagna family bought it in 1826. In the early 20th century it became a girls' college, and in 1968 it passed to the Province of Venice.

The Galvagna family maintained an art collection in the palace until 1855, when an auction dispersed numerous paintings to the National Gallery in London.

The palace houses the "Francesco Algarotti" technical tourism institute, so interiors are not open to visitors. The facade and the rear garden, now a public park shared with Palazzo Manfrin Venier, can be reached on foot along the Canale di Cannaregio. The garden is entered from the landward side.

A recent facade restoration uncovered original construction methods, revealing how workers secured stone cornices using wall joints and metal clamps. This discovery provides insight into the practical techniques of Venetian builders.
