Naval Museum

The interesting Naval Museum, in the Castello area of Venice, houses many artefacts rescued from well-known ships, and also exhibits some elaborate gondolas and a wealth of nautical memorabilia.

Venice's Naval Museum features four floors of displays, including detailed models of gunboats, lagoon craft and boats. One of the most impressive attractions at the Naval Museum is the enormous model of the famous naval ship Bucintoro, which was built in 1728.
