[2025 Venice Attraction] Travel Guide for Museo Correr (Updated Jul)

Highly recommend signing up for the guided tour of the St. Mark's Clock Tower, where you can enjoy a panoramic view of St. Mark's Square and the Doge's Palace. The tour also includes tickets to the Correr Museum, making it a great deal. After that, we stopped by the famous Libreria Acqua Alta for some photos. Since we had purchased a one-day transportation card for Venice, we took the water bus to Murano and Burano islands, where we witnessed a breathtaking sunset. 🌅*If time permits, you can spend a whole day exploring these two islands, taking photos, and enjoying a leisurely pace.

Doge’s Palace is one of Venice’s most iconic landmarks, rich in history, art, and stunning architecture. If you’re visiting, here’s everything you need to know, including what to expect, ticket tips, and my honest review. 🎟 Ticket & Entry Tips • I bought my ticket on Trip.com for €23/person, compared to €30 on-site, saving €14 in total—enough for a meal! • The ticket includes access to: ✅ Doge’s Palace (Fixed Time Slot Required) ✅ Museo Correr ✅ National Archeological Museum ✅ Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana • Plan at least 3 hours if you want to visit all four sites. 🏛 What to Expect Inside 1️⃣ Doge’s Palace – The Main Highlight • Stunning Gothic architecture with golden ceilings, intricate paintings, and grand halls. • The Chamber of the Great Council – One of the largest rooms in Europe, featuring Tintoretto’s masterpiece, Paradise. • The Bridge of Sighs – Walk through this historic bridge, where prisoners took their final look at Venice before imprisonment. • The Prisons – Dark, eerie cells where the infamous Casanova was once held. 2️⃣ Museo Correr • Located in St. Mark’s Square, showcasing Venetian history, art, and neoclassical rooms. 3️⃣ National Archeological Museum • Small but filled with ancient Greek and Roman sculptures, coins, and relics. 4️⃣ Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana • A stunning historical library with rare manuscripts and beautiful frescoes. 📝 My Review • Worth it? ✅ Yes! The Doge’s Palace alone is breathtaking, and the other three sites are great add-ons. • Time needed? ⏳ At least 3 hours if you want to see everything properly. • Crowds? 🚶♂️ Very crowded, especially mid-day. I recommend early morning or late afternoon visits. • Photos? 📸 Some areas don’t allow photos, so be mindful. • Final verdict? ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must-visit in Venice! Would I go again? Probably not, since it’s a one-time experience, but I’d highly recommend it for first-time visitors! #favouriteitinerary #dogepalace

#February travel support event I visited because it was included in the Venice Museum Pass, and there were many rooms and artifacts from that time, so there was a lot to see. It is connected to the Archaeological Museum, so you can naturally see everything. I also recommend this museum cafe because the panini and coffee are delicious, the view is great, and the interior is antique. It's my favorite place among the places I've been to while traveling in Europe ❤️ It's so wonderful.
