The Murano Glass Museum houses the world's largest collection of Venetian glass, with over 4,000 pieces spanning two millennia. The collection ranges from Roman-era glass fragments to contemporary works by modern masters.

The museum is housed in the former Palazzo dei Vescovi di Torcello, a Gothic building on the Fondamenta Giustinian. The collection was established in 1861 to preserve the island's glassmaking heritage and has grown to become the definitive record of Venetian glass production.
