Palazzo
Ca? Zanardi (Cannaregio 4132, Venice) is a residential palace
dating back to the 16th century which, over the centuries, has been added
on to by various noble Venetian families and is one of the most evocative
and beautiful palaces in the city of Venice. Sumptuous and possessing
particular charm, Ca? Zanardi is located in a most peaceful setting and
has its own delightful private garden as well as a magnificent terrace
full of sun and colour. Ca? Zanardi is located close to the Ca? D?Oro, the
splendid 15th century gothic palace along the Grand Canal. It is
easily reachable by foot, after a two minute walk from the Ca? D?Oro water
bus stop, or by boat using the palazzo?s private pier positioned along the
fetching Santa Caterina canal. The refined elegance of the palazzo?s halls
and common areas and the delicacy of its original 16th century furnishings
create a fascinating
setting.
