Spiral staircase around a tower, like a snail's shell, offering a panoramic view of the roofs of Venice.
Hidden in the heart of a maze of alleys, this mysterious and sculptural staircase lives up to its name. Designed as a spiral staircase, it takes shape with the tower that serves as a backdrop, a bit like the snail(bovolo in Venetian) with its shell. Its balustrades and arches in white stone and brick date back to 1499. They offer a panoramic and singular view of the roofs of Venice. On the second level of the staircase, you can discover a collection of paintings in the loggia.

Beautiful architecture but a little expensive for a view over the roofs more than anything else. Combined ticket with Viva Vivaldi interesting. Otherwise, enjoy the view of the Palazzo, the building is superb and it is free.

Un peu difficile à trouver, cet "escalier-tour" du palais Contarini del Bovolo vaut bien un détour parmi les nombreuses ruelles de ce quartier peu éloigné de la place Saint Marc. Petit jardin agréable, possibilité de monter en haut de l'escalier.
