Overview

What To Expect

Murano

Murano Island is renowned for its long-standing glassmaking tradition. Ferries arrive filled with curious visitors eager to explore the Museo del Vetro, which chronicles the history of glass over the centuries, and to purchase local handcrafted souvenirs. Built in the Romanesque style, the Church of Santa Maria and San Donato features a colorful mosaic floor and is said to house the bones of a slain dragon.
