Step into the National Archeological Museum, tucked away on Piazza San Marco. Study ancient sculptures and artifacts from Egypt, Greece, Rome and Babylon, including the celebrated Grimani collection.

📖

Full description

The National Archeological Museum sits in the grand setting of Piazza San Marco and holds ancient Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Babylonian antiquities, including the Grimani collection. Reviewers praise the sculptures and historical artifacts, though some find the signposting confusing and recommend taking your time to find your way.

The adjoining Marciana library is also admired. It often feels like a quieter corner of the busy square, and 45 minutes is a reasonable allowance for a solo or unhurried visit.

It is closed on Mondays.

Reviews

The home of the amazing Grimani collection. The Marciana library is beautiful. One star off for the incredibly confusing signposting, I'm pretty sure at some point I accidentally ended up in a completely different museum
