At the mouth of the rio (a small canal) di San Polo, between Palazzo Barbarigo della Terrazza and Palazzo Grimani Marcello, this palace of Gothic origin has three façades on the water and a small central courtyard. Its Renaissance canal-side front, now somewhat faded, conceals two glories that were lost and rediscovered.
