Doge's Palace Tickets & 11-Museum Pass

The Doge's Palace & 11-Museum Pass unlocks Venice's finest cultural treasures with one convenient ticket. This comprehensive pass grants access to the magnificent Doge's Palace plus 10 additional civic museums across Venice, from St Mark's Square to the islands of Murano and Burano. You'll explore Gothic architecture, Renaissance masterpieces, ancient manuscripts, and traditional Venetian crafts at your own pace.

The pass activates with your first museum visit and remains valid for 6 months, giving you flexibility to explore thoroughly. You can skip the main ticket lines at each venue and dive straight into Venice's rich history, from the political power of the former Venetian Republic to the artistic traditions that shaped the floating city.

  • Marvel at Doge's Palace's lavish halls, grand stairways and priceless artworks that chronicle Venice's history
  • Discover Venetian life and naval history at Museo Correr, featuring neoclassical art and an extensive historic library
  • View rare manuscripts and stunning Renaissance interiors at Biblioteca Marciana, one of Italy's greatest libraries
  • Explore traditional island crafts at the Glass Museum in Murano and Lace Museum in Burano
  • Admire Venetian baroque at Ca' Rezzonico and modern art collections at Ca' Pesaro

Plan Your Visit to Venice's Civic Museums

Your pass activates with the first museum entry, any time within 24 months of purchase. Once activated, you have 6 months to visit the remaining venues. Check individual museum opening times before visiting as these vary between locations. You can visit multiple museums in one day or spread your visits throughout the validity period.

Download or print your pass in advance and use the provided online guide to plan your route. Both digital and printed tickets work at all venues. The pass includes skip-the-line access, though certain restricted areas like Doge's Palace Secret Itineraries and Prisons require separate tickets.

For the complete Venetian experience, consider adding St Mark's Basilica skip-the-line tickets to explore the cathedral's Byzantine mosaics. You might also enjoy a Grand Canal gondola ride to see these historic palaces from the water.
