What you get

    About this experience

    Patrician residence in San Stae, housing valuable eighteenth-century furnishing and paintings. The palazzo is the home of the Centro Studi di Storia del Tessuto e del Costume (Centre for the Study of the History of Textiles and Clothing), and holds rich, complex collections coming from diverse sources. Among them, the museum displays a selection of rare pieces – fabrics and outfits, including original, sumptuous eighteenth-century dresses – of special importance. The dresses and accessories on display, which are for the most part of Venetian origin, were made with textured fabrics and often embellished with embroidery and lace, standing as excellent testimony to the skills of the large group of artisans (weavers, tailors, lace-makers, embroiderers, etc.) who contributed to creating the refined and luxurious elegance for which the Venetians were famed at the time.

    Interesting palace and museum

    Interesting museum to discover the interior of a Venetian palace, period costumes and perfumes. Point of improvement for the museum: put explanatory sheets for costumes. Asking to scan a QR code to have the information is not practical especially since there are already descriptive sheets of the rooms, adding the costume information on the back would be simple and effective.

    Hidden treasures in Venice

    Outside the tourist flow in the San Croce area, this museum absolutely deserves to be seen. I really liked the layouts of the rooms. From the costumes of the time, the decorations, the beautiful pieces of Murano, it is possible to understand what the grandeur of Venice had been. Also stop and watch the video (available in several languages) on the great Venetian perfumers. The price of a single ticket is 10 euros or you can opt to purchase it for 15 euros which also includes Ca' Rezzonico and Goldoni's house. Friendly staff

    Amazing tour - well worth it, interesting and interactive

    Our whole family were really impressed by how great this tour and little museum are. Our three young kids including our oldest boy of 11 really loved making their own perfumes after having learnt about and smelt all of the different scents in the museum. My husband and I thought the palace itself was gorgeous too. Our amazing tour guide Elena (or Helen) gave a great insight into Venetian life over the centuries and the kids were really engaged and captivated by her. Our group was very small and felt private as MUVE who run the museum do seem to really tailor and time the tours according to demand. This one is a hidden gem amidst the busy-ness of Venice.

    Lovely palazzo, interesting history of perfume, quiet and a lovely place to visit

    I love this place and visit whenever i can. Quiet, unassuming and interesting. The temporary displays are always interesting. The 18th century waistcoats are beautiful

    Venice Palazzo Mocenigo: History of Textile, Costume and Perfume: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.

    How much does Venice Palazzo Mocenigo: History of Textile, Costume and Perfume cost?

    +

    Prices start at $21 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Venice Palazzo Mocenigo: History of Textile, Costume and Perfume take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.

    Is Venice Palazzo Mocenigo: History of Textile, Costume and Perfume worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Venice Palazzo Mocenigo: History of Textile, Costume and Perfume?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Venice Palazzo Mocenigo: History of Textile, Costume and Perfume suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Venice Palazzo Mocenigo: History of Textile, Costume and Perfume?

    +

    Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Venice Palazzo Mocenigo: History of Textile, Costume and Perfume start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Venice?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with Wine in Venice, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Venice Bacaro Food Tour: Eat and Drink like a Venetian. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Venice?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Venice?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
