Palazzo Labia

Palazzo Labia is an elegant 18th-century palace located between the Grand Canal and the Rio di San Girolamo, in the Cannaregio district. It was built for the wealthy Labia family of Catalan origin and is one of the last great noble palaces constructed in Venice.

The interior is renowned for its grand hall, frescoed by Giambattista Tiepolo, depicting the stories of Antony and Cleopatra with remarkable theatricality and refinement. Today, the palace houses the RAI (Italian national broadcaster) and can only be visited on special occasions or during cultural events.
