Palazzo Ducale
Don't be fooled by the genteel Gothic elegance: under
its lacy pink facade and rosy Veronese ceilings, the
Ducal Palace flexes serious political muscle. The seat
of Venice's government for nearly seven centuries,
this powerhouse stood the test of fires, storms and
conspiracies - only to be outwitted by Casanova, the
notorious seducer, who escaped from the attic prison.
