Carlo Goldoni's House
The Casa di Carlo Goldoni was built in the 15th century and still displays the layout and elements typical of late 14th to early 15th century Venetian civil architecture.
The house was initially owned by the Rizzi family, after which it passed to the Zentani or Centani family and also housed a flourishing artistic-literary academy. Towards the end of the 17th century, Carlo Goldoni's paternal grandfather, Carlo Alessandro, a notary of Modenese origin, settled here.
The Goldoni family remained in this house until 1719. In 1914 it was bought by the distinguished Venetian scholar Aldo Ravà, who wanted to turn it into a museum for all Italian dramatic art. The project was halted due to the war. In 1931, the palazzo was donated to the Venice City Council to be restored and opened to the public as the Goldoniano Museum.
