Casanova
Official Museum

EXPERIENTIAL MUSEUM

The Official Museum of Giacomo Casanova

Welcome to my home. We are in Palazzo Zaguri, the place that best preserves the traces of my history. Here, among rooms that have seen encounters, ideas and confessions, my voice returns to intertwine with memories: the rustle of fabrics on Venetian nights, laughter in salons, hurried steps along calli that I knew by heart. Among these rooms you will relive my journeys, my falls and starts again: are you ready to begin this journey with me?
