About Venetian Palace
The Palace of Venice (Italian: Palazzo di Venezia, Turkish: Venedik Sarayı) is a historic property in the Beyoğlu (formerly Pera) neighborhood of Istanbul, Turkey. From the early 16th century to 1923 it has been the seat of the embassies in the Ottoman Empire of, successively, the Republic of Venice, the French Empire, the Austrian Empire, and the Kingdom of Italy. Following the abolition of the Sultanate in 1922 and the subsequent relocation of the Italian embassy to the new Turkish capital Ankara in 1923, the Palace of Venice has served as the Italian Consulate-General in Istanbul, as well as a residence for the ambassador when in town.
The building was altered repeatedly following episodes of fire and disrepair, and the current structure mostly results from reconstruction in the 1910s. The large surrounding property also hosts the Italian school or Liceo Italiano di Istanbul, originally established in the 1880s by Austria-Hungary.
