Next to Palazzo Grassi, this mid-15th-century Gothic palazzo was the Grand Canal house of the Da Lezze, a very ancient family whom tradition has arriving from Lecce in 973. The façade has kept its archaic character: elongated windows with trefoil ogee arches and, at the centre, two superimposed four-light windows with balconies now in iron; only the ground floor was remodelled in the 18th century.
