Palazzo Correggio, Venice

Palazzo Correggio is a palace in Venice, located in the Santa Croce district and overlooking the right side of the Grand Canal, between Palazzo Donà and Ca' Corner della Regina, near Ca' Pesaro.

 

History

Built during the eighteenth century, it was designed by a pupil of the architect Andrea Tirali and built on the site of a sixteenth-century building owned by Orazio Correggio. This branch of the Correggio family died out with Zandonà Correggio, who committed suicide on 25 June 1738 due to economic problems.

 

Architecture

The front of the building is linear and quite elegant, overall not very showy. The ground floor, with a central water portal, is decorated with ashlar work, while the upper floors have simple windows, among which the two central three-mullioned windows with trabeation and tympanum stand out.
