Where to Find Palazzo & Museo Fortuny?
How to Get to Palazzo & Museo Fortuny, Venice
By Vaporetto (Water Bus)
The easiest way to reach the museum is by taking Vaporetto Line 1 and getting off at Sant’Angelo.
From the stop, it’s only a short walk through quiet alleyways to reach Campo San Beneto, where the museum is located.
This route works well if you’re arriving from Piazzale Roma, Venezia Santa Lucia Train Station, or other major vaporetto hubs along the Grand Canal.
On Foot
If you’re staying near San Marco, Rialto, or anywhere in the central districts, walking is often the quickest and most scenic option.
Palazzo Fortuny is tucked between narrow Venetian streets, making it easy to reach on foot while enjoying the city’s architecture and canals.
Keep an eye out for signs pointing toward Campo San Beneto along the way.
By Water Taxi
A private water taxi offers the most direct and convenient arrival, especially if you’re carrying luggage or want a faster trip.
Taxis can drop you at nearby canals, from where it’s only a brief walk to the museum.
This option is ideal for travelers coming from the airport or luxury hotels along the Grand Canal.
From the Train Station (Venezia Santa Lucia)
From the station, you can take Vaporetto Line 1 straight down the Grand Canal to Sant’Angelo.
The journey is scenic and takes you past some of Venice’s most iconic palaces before arriving near the museum.
From Piazzale Roma (Car & Bus Terminal)
Since cars cannot enter central Venice, you’ll switch to a vaporetto once you reach Piazzale Roma.
Take Line 1 to Sant’Angelo, then walk a few minutes to Campo San Beneto.
Water taxis are also available directly from Piazzale Roma for a quicker transfer.
From Marco Polo Airport
You can take the Alilaguna water-bus (Orange Line) to the San Marco or Rialto area, then walk or switch to Vaporetto Line 1.
Water taxis from the airport are the fastest option and drop you much closer to the museum’s location.
