The Palazzo Curti Valmarana is a Renaissance-style palace located in the Grand Canal of Venice, Italy. It is nestled between Palazzo Querini Benzon and Palazzo Corner Spinelli in the San Marco district. Directly across the canal, it faces Palazzo Querini Dubois.
History
It is a 17th-century building, but renovated in the 18th-century.[1]
The Valmarana family, an aristocratic lineage from Vicenza with ties to Venetian patrician status, is associated with the palace. They derive their name from the village of Valmarana in the Berici Hills, where they held fiefs from the bishop of Vicenza.
Architecture
The first floor features architraves, while the second floor features a squared arch. The facade opens to the center with overlapping three-light windows, flanked by single lads.
