Venice - Palazzo Pesaro 


The Palazzo Pesaro was built between 1652 and 1710 by the masters of Venetian Late Baroque, Baldassare Longhena and Antonio Gaspari. Sansovino's Library in the Piazzetta was used as a model for the splendid facade. After the death of the last Pesaro in 1830 there was a succession of owners, until the City of Venice acquired the palace in 1902.
