The Doge's Palace and the Basilica of St. Mark

The Doges' Palace was the official residence of the Dukes of Venice, and the seat of the Venetian governing institutions, from the 9thC until 1797.

A multitude of paintings broadcast the image of Venice as an ideal State whose enduring independence was taken as a sign of divine favor

The Church of Saint Mark was built 1063 and its walls are encrusted with almost 90.000 square feet of magnificent mosaics
