About the Doge's Palace
The Doge's Palace, Palazzo Ducale in Italian, is a Venetian Gothic palace and ranks among Venice's main landmarks in northern Italy. Inside were its government offices, a jail and the home of the Doge of Venice, the former Republic of Venice's elected authority. The palace was rebuilt in 1340 and was later extended and modified for centuries. In 1923 it became a museum.
Doge Agnello Participazio moved the government's seat to the Rialto area in 810, and it was decided that a ducal palace should be built. No trace of that 9th-century building remains, because a fire started in the 10th century by rebellious citizens, during an uprising against Doge Pietro IV Candiano, partly destroyed the palace. Work on the new Gothic palace began around 1340 and focused mostly on the side facing the lagoon. In 1424 Doge Francesco Foscari decided to extend the rebuilding to the wing overlooking the Piazzetta.
Fires struck repeatedly. In 1483 a violent fire began on the canal side, where the Doge's Apartments were, and the reconstruction went to Antonio Rizzo, who brought the new Renaissance language into the building's architecture. Another fire in 1574 destroyed some second-floor rooms, and a third in 1577 took the Great Council Chamber and the Scrutinio Room. The decision in the rebuilding was to keep to the original Gothic style, even though Andrea Palladio submitted neo-classical alternatives.
