Palazzo Grimani Marcello, Renaissance palace on Grand Canal in San Polo, Italy

The palace displays a tripartite facade decorated with sculptural elements and Corinthian capitals covered in white Istrian stone along the Grand Canal.

Built in the 18th century on the foundations of a 12th-century structure, the palace passed to the Grimani family through Francesca Giustinian's marriage.

The internal rooms feature frescoes by Carlo Bevilacqua from 1825, and the palace now hosts temporary art exhibitions following its 2021 reopening.

Visitors can reach the palace via waterbus Line 1 from Piazzale Roma, with the nearest stop at San Toma, 450 meters from the building.

The rear facade includes a distinctive water portal consisting of three openings separated by columns, leading to an internal courtyard.
