Palazzo Grimani is free for everyone on the first Sunday of every month (the national #domenicalmuseo scheme), and on 25 April, 2 June and 4 November. Under-18s are free every day.
No booking is needed on free days. The museum is small, so mid-morning on a free Sunday is the busiest it gets; arrive at 10:00 or after 16:00.

| Tuesday – Sunday | 10:00 – 19:00 | Last entry 18:00 |

The visit starts in the 16th-century courtyard and climbs the monumental staircase frescoed by Federico Zuccari. On the piano nobile you walk through the rooms the Grimani decorated: the Camerino di Apollo, the Sala del Doge Antonio with its coloured marbles, the Room of Foliage, the Sala del Camino and the Sala di Psiche.
It ends in the Tribuna, where Patriarch Giovanni Grimani's ancient sculptures are displayed under the coffered vault, with Ganymede and the eagle hanging in the centre.
The second floor, without the decoration of the first, hosts one or more exhibitions a year that set ancient and contemporary art against each other. In 2026 it shows Amoako Boafo's first solo exhibition in Italy, from 5 May to 22 November.
Exhibitions are normally covered by the standard ticket. Allow extra time: they can double the length of your visit.
