Why Visit the Stairs of the Palazzo Contarini del Bovolo?

Located a few meters away from the Piazza Campo Manin, the Palazzo Contarini del Bovolo is one of the most eye-catching buildings in Venice. Are you ready to explore its famous staircase?

This palace, built in the 15th century, combines perfectly the architectonical elements of Gothic, Byzantine, and Renaissance styles. Its fame and popularity, as well as its name, are due to the curious spiral staircase that decorates the façade of the building, creating the visual illusion of a tower.

During your visit, you'll explore the stairs of the palace and admire the city from its many archways. Once you reach the very top of the building, you'll be able to enjoy one of the best panoramic views of Venice. St. Mark's Campanile will be right in front of you, you can't miss it!
