Welcome to the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia (MUVE), the heart of Venice’s vibrant cultural scene. We look after the city’s beloved civic museums, offering you a front-row seat to the art, politics, and stories that have shaped Venice over the centuries.

Our collection features some of the city’s most iconic landmarks. You can step into the grand halls of the Doge’s Palace, explore the treasures of the Museo Correr right in Piazza San Marco, or discover the elegance of 18th-century Venice at Ca’ Rezzonico. We also invite you to cross the lagoon to visit the world-famous Glass Museum in Murano. From the heights of Renaissance power to the beautiful details of everyday life, there is so much to uncover.

What makes MUVE truly special is that we aren’t just one building—we are a living part of the city itself. Think of us as a gateway to explore Venice’s diverse neighborhoods and history from many different perspectives, all at your own pace.

Experience art in Venice

Italy

Venice is a city where art does not live inside museums only — it floats through palaces, churches, canals, biennials, private collections and contemporary pavilions.

For art lovers, Venice is not just a destination. It is a stage where every façade, bridge, church and canal becomes part of the experience. Avoid rushing Venice. Choose one main art area per day — Dorsoduro, San Marco, Castello, Giudecca — and let the city reveal itself between visits.
