About Peggy Gugggenheim

The Peggy Guggenheim Collection is a highlight of any Venice art adventure, offering an up-close look at world-class modern masterpieces in a historic, canal-side setting. As part of Venice’s vibrant museum scene, it stands out for its personal atmosphere, lush gardens, and the fascinating story of Peggy Guggenheim, the famed art collector.

Did you know?

The museum is housed in the Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, famously known as the 'unfinished palace' because it was never completed beyond its single story.

Part of Peggy's collection is Jackson Pollock painted 'Alchemy', which was painted on his mother’s heavy-duty tablecloth. He used hidden grids, proving his famed drip technique was far more deliberate and mathematically planned than it appears.

The museum’s sculpture garden is not only a tranquil retreat but also Peggy Guggenheim’s final resting place—she is buried there alongside her beloved dogs.

Peggy Guggenheim lived surrounded by art, sleeping beneath a silver bedhead designed by Alexander Calder, and presiding in her garden from a Byzantine throne as the self-styled “Dogaressa of Venice.”

Why visit Peggy Gugggenheim?

Masterpieces of modern art

Admire an outstanding collection of 20th-century art, including works by Picasso, Pollock, Dalí, Kandinsky, and more, all curated from Peggy Guggenheim’s personal collection.

Experience art inside the Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, an 18th-century ‘unfinished palace’ with a fascinating history and beautiful architecture right on the Grand Canal.

Tranquil sculpture garden

Relax in the lush Nasher Sculpture Garden, dotted with modern sculptures by artists including Yoko Ono—plus Peggy’s own tomb and her beloved dogs’ resting place.

Intimate and personal atmosphere

Explore Peggy Guggenheim’s former home, where the art is displayed in a warm, inviting environment that feels both personal and inspiring.

Stunning Grand Canal views

Take in breathtaking views of Venice’s Grand Canal from the museum’s terrace and café, making your art experience even more memorable.

Very fast and comfortable service. Used the service the entire day whilst in Venice. Bought a 3 day pass and used it as a hop on , hop off bus as in the UK. Would highly recommend. Staff very helpful as well.

This was such a good purchase! So easy to use. Just print off the tickets at a self-service machine and then can use on as many modes of transport as described and as often as you like within your time frame. Took the stress out of trying to work out the local systems and language barrier but ultimately saved money! Would definitely do again!

Fabulous collection, we'll laid out. I highly recommend buying the short guide, sit in the café and have an Aperol Spritz while you read it. Going to the gallery with your head full of information makes it a great experience.

What a treat! I expected to find unfinished works, but to my surprise, I found pieces that were nothing short of thrilling. Even the girls loved them! Thank you.
