Palazzo Barbarigo Nani Mocenigo
Palazzo Barbarigo Nani Mocenigo is a Gothic palace in Venice, Italy located in the Dorsoduro district, along the Nani embankment on the San Trovaso river, near the campo of the same name. History The palace dates back to the 15th century and was the residence of the Barbarigo family. The building was part of the dowry that Elena Barbarigo, a daughter of Doge Agostino Barbarigo, brought to her husband Giorgio Nani. From them the palace passed to his son Bernardo, a founder of the family branch named ''di San Trovaso''. In the first half of the 19th century, the San Trovaso branch died out, and the complex became the home of the distant relatives of Nani Mocenigo who previously lived in a building on the Cannaregio district.

Since 2007, the building has remained empty, sometimes b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
