About this experience

More than 200 rare and valuable objects are preserved in the open archive here, including drawings, photographs, and other lace charms. On the first floor of the museum, you'll find four rooms packed with lacey-based items. Learn about the evolution of the art of lace-making in Venice over the centuries, and get up close to over 200 rare and precious examples.
