"Accademia Gallery The Gallerie dell'Accademia is the place to see Venice through the eyes of centuries of famous Venetians. The museum has a huge collection of paintings from the Byzantine and Gothic eras through the Renaissance and into the 18th century (including many of Canaletto's paintings that helped draw travelers here from around the world). Before you visit, watch the Katharine Hepburn film Summertime , which has some great scenes filmed in the museum in the 1950s."
