Palazzo Rota, Venice

Just meters from the majesty of St. Marco’s Square, “Palazzo Rota – Luxury Apartments” has opened to the public. This 14th-century residence has been restored to its former splendor by the Pacini Group. The historic building, protected by the Superintendency, is now home to exclusive residences, designed for travelers seeking an intimate and sophisticated experience. Palazzo Rota combines the charm of history with contemporary comfort. This elegant Venetian residence is a harmonious blend of history, aesthetics, and belonging. The restoration project, designed by Studio Marco Piva of Milan, honored the palace’s history: originally a textile factory, then a glassworks, a museum, and finally a noble residence. Each transformation has left its mark, making the building a precious testament to Venetian heritage. Palazzo Rota offers its guests a video art experience.

Works from the Videoinsight® Collection are exhibited in the apartments. The permanent exhibition entitled Videoinsight® Experience is the result of a collaboration between the Pacini Group and the Videoinsight Foundation – ETS.

Artistic Direction is by Rebecca Russo; curatorship is by Monica Bassetto.
