Itinerary

Gallerie Dell'Accademia

Founded in 1750 by the Venetian Senate as Venice’s school of painting, sculpture, and architecture, the school was one of the first to study and develop art restoration. The Accademia was renamed the Accademia Reale di Belle Arti and moved to its present premises in 1807 by order of the Napoleonic occupying forces. After the suppression of religious congregations and public Venetian magistratures, a large quantity of art works was confiscated. A selection of masterpieces was sent to Paris, to be shown in the Louvre Museum.  The connection between the Accademia Galleries and Venice is deep, as many important works from churches, schools, and public magistratures are preserved here. In some cases, the shown works are the only testimony remaining from churches destroyed during the Napoleonic period. Some of the most famous paintings form part of the collections thanks to the generosity of private collectors.

Published on Oct, 2024

First time user. Easy and good communication. Tickets were available about 24 hours in advance via email. Great museum with so much to see. Uncrowded.

Book it, skip the line and enjoy centuries of art.

The artwork in the galleries is amazing. Booking online and reserving your time is the only way to visit any museum or gallery. Your ticket is scanned and away you go.

Wonderful place, I was happy to be there!

It's a beautiful museum with amazing art! However, the voucher system that Viator uses didn't work there because there is no ticket office to trade in the voucher. The guards let me in anyway, thank goodness!

Exquisite museum of the masters.

It is an amazing place. I would highly recommend a visit. Bellini, Canova, Tintoretto, so much beauty. Be sure to allow enough time. I spent 3 hours and that was about right. Work was being done some some areas closed. I didn’t get my ticket from this tour so I bought a separate ticket.
