Palazzo Gritti Morosini Badoer

Palazzo Gritti Morosini Badoer is a historic Venetian palace located on Campo Bandiera e Moro in the Castello sestiere of Venice, Italy. The building, also known as Palazzo Gritti Badoer or Palazzo dei Badoari-Partecipazi, is a striking example of Gothic-Byzantine architecture. Its main 15th-century façade is asymmetric, featuring a pentafore window with Veronese pink marble pillars, circular marble inserts, sculptural reliefs, and 10th-century Byzantine high-reliefs. The interior includes a piano nobile with a sumptuous reception hall adorned with 18th-century Venetian paintings by artists such as Niccolò Bambini, Antonio Molinari, and Giuseppe Diamantini, Murano glass chandeliers, and 18th-century stuccoes. The palace has a thousand-year history. It was originally owned by the noble Gritti family and was home to Doge Andrea Gritti (1523–1538). In 1591, through the marriage of Lucrezia Gritti and Tommaso Morosini, it passed to the Morosini family. In 1729, it became the property of the Badoer family, who consolidated its ownership. In the mid-19th century, the Badoer-Partecipazio sold the building to the Marquis Saibante. The building has recently undergone external and internal restoration. Today, the historic residence houses Hotel La Residenza, a two-star hotel that offers carefully designed rooms and apartments. The hotel is located a short walk from St Mark's Square, the Arsenale, and Riva degli Schiavoni. It provides a charming stay in the heart of authentic Venice, with rooms combining classical style and modern comfort, as well as apartments for longer stays. The hotel's official website emphasizes the historic atmosphere, enriched by paintings and period features. The adjacent Church of San Giovanni in Bragora, where composer Antonio Vivaldi was baptised, adds to the typical Venetian atmosphere of the Campo Bandiera e Moro.

Its origins date back to the 15th century, when the main façade was constructed in a Gothic-Byzantine style. The palace was originally owned by the noble Gritti family and was the residence of Doge Andrea Gritti (1523–1538), the 77th Doge of the Republic of Venice. In 1591, through the marriage of Lucrezia Gritti and Tommaso Morosini, the property passed to the Morosini family. In 1729, it became the property of the Badoer family, who consolidated its ownership. In the mid-19th century, the Badoer-Partecipazio sold the building to the Marquis Saibante. The building has recently undergone external and internal restoration.

The palace is located on Campo Bandiera e Moro, near the Church of San Giovanni in Bragora, where Antonio Vivaldi was baptised. The Venetian painter and engraver Jacopo de' Barbari included a view of the Campo de la Bragora with the Palazzo Gritti in his woodcut View of Venice (1500). The British writer Michael White featured the palazzo-hotel in his thriller The Medici Secret.
