A historically and artistically interesting itinerary can be seen in the ancient Vescovi di Torcello Palace, based on the production of Murano glass from its origins till our day.

The Planetarium on Lido brings together science and history, imagination with scientific explanations, plus comfort and warmth while admiring the heavens.  The opening of this centre has filled in the hole left over when the centre at St Nicolò’s convent was closed.  Amateur Venetian astronomers can now enjoy themselves again.

The museum is located in the ancient Gothic palace that goes by the same name, in campo San Beneto, previously owned by the Pesaro family, later purchased by Mariano Fortuny. 
Fortuny had it in mind to make it his atelier for photographs, scenography and scenotechnique, the creation of fabbric and painting: of all these functions the building only conserved rooms and structures, upholstery and collections.

The International modern art gallery takes place at Cà Pesaro, the most important baroque venetian palace, built right onto the Gran Canal by Baldassarre Longhena.  It contains important collections of paintings and sculptures from the 18/1900s.

Palace Mocenigo, at San Stae, is a stunning example of architecture in Venice at the beginning of the XVII century, and it holds precious decorations and paintings from the 1700s.
It constitutes the lodgings of the Study Centre of Fabrics and Costumes and a Museum of the same name.

After being closed for restoration until 2006, the Clock Tower  is finally given back to venetians and it's ready to continue beating the hours in Saint Mark's square from its dominating position at the entrance of Mercerie. The Clock Tower is one of the most important symbols of Saint Mark's Square. Ruling at the apex of the clock tower are the Giants (one young and one old, showing the passage of time) who bang out the hours with their hammers. They have blackened over the years and are now known as the "Mori".

The palace is an amazing example of Venetian Gothic architecture. It was the home of the Doge and law making institutions and a symbol of the wealth and power wielded by the Serenissima, the Venetian Republic. Inside are the Great Council rooms, the Senate, the constituency all decorated with paintings by Tintoretto, Titian and Veronese.  There are also the private rooms of the Doge, the famous Council of Ten rooms, the Armoury and the Prisons.

A visit to the museum in St Mark’s Square is a good way to discover Venice’s history and art. The tour begins in the Napoleon Wing and proceeds to the Neoclassical Rooms which holds scupture by Canova and ends in the Public Prosecutors rooms with exhibits on the history of Venice and ancient art. The second floor displays a collection of Venetian art from its beginnings until the 1500s and also houses the Museum of the Risorgimento. 

The Lace Museum was opened in 1981 and celebrates one of the best art productions of traditional lace-making, on the Venetian island of Burano, that was it’s home for centuries.
More than 200 examples (XVI-XX century) are kept in the historical Lace School of Burano, founded in 1872 by countess Andriana Marcello so as to promote this secular tradition.

The cultural Italian-German association of Venice was found in 1971, for application by the general council of Germany in Milan, according to the chamber of commerce of Venice.
