The area
Address
Neighbourhood: San Polo
The Rialto Bridge is the most famous sight along the Grand Canal in San Polo, smallest of Venice's six sestieri (districts) and by far the busiest neighbourhood. Morning Venetians arrive to peruse the markets for fish, fruit and vegetables, while shops display goods from cheese to wine to desserts. San Silvestro and Rialto Market vaporetto (water taxi) stops add to the steady stream of foot traffic. San Polo is defined by churches including Basilica dei Frari, one of the most important churches sought by art lovers.

This is not a Museum as it doe snot show any original work from Leonardo da Vinci. It is a small exhibition with replicas of his painting and drawings, and with some small scale wooden machines he drawn. The explications are pretty good and you can learn a lot about Leonardo. Still a ticket at 8e is an exagerated price for such a small and short exhibition.

Dear visitor, thank you for your review.
Our choice in the definition derives from the meaning as the dictionary of the word MUSEUM: a place where objects of historical, scientific and artistic interest are collected and preserved in a systematic and organized way for documentary, educational and conservation purposes.

My husband & I were on vacation to Venice to celebrate our #55 anniversary and spent one day sightseeing and came across the Leonardo da Vinci Museum.
We would fully recommend that you pay it a visit if ever in Venice!
Entrance fee is very reasonable.
The museum features various interactive machines that truly shows us that DaVinci was a genius, and a great engineer and artist.
We throughly enjoyed our visit!

Great interactive museum for children, don’t miss it!
You can find lots of paintings, pages from the codexes, the studies Leonardo made, many machines and flying objects.
Everything is interactive, the children were very excited.

I was expecting to come into a museum that held da Vinci's works but all it was, was his work printed on copy paper and they talk about it. Upstairs showed his inventions which was better because you would actually mess around with them. But it's super small and a complete disappointment. I spent maybe 20 mins in there.

Dear visitor, thank you for your review.
I just wanted to point out that what she devinisce "...work printed on copy paper..." actually is the material of the historical collection of the Royal Vincian Commission (owned by the museum itself)made between 1920 and 1940 under the guidance of the most illustrious Italian art historian, Professor Adolfo Venturi.

This morning, we visited the Leonardo da Vinci museum. It was wonderful and interesting. The museum had many exhibits, facts, information, paintings, translated manuscripts, diagrams and a VR experience! We also purchased an audio guide for 1€. We enjoyed the visit as it was a spectacular experience bringing his works to life. I would definitely recommend this to children and adults alike. It was really educational and we enjoyed the hands on experience of Leonardo‘s inventions. This was a brilliant hidden gem!

I really liked this exhibit and am not going to quibble over whether or not this is a true museum. This is the first time in my life I've seen so many of da Vinci's inventions as 3D models in varying scales (some full size). I also enjoyed the narratives found around the exhibit. I thought I knew almost everything about da Vinci until this visit when I saw and read things (almost all of the written descriptions were in English) for the very first time. Some of the exhibits are hands-on so you can have a greater appreciation for the genius behind the invention. The fact that the exhibit was in a beautiful former church didn't hurt, either.
Travel tip: We stumbled across the exhibit walking to some other destination from our hotel. While I loved it, and think it was very well done, I'm not sure I can advise going out of one's way to visit here unless you have free time in Venice.
Thanks for reading. I’ll appreciate a thumbs up below if you’ve found this helpful.

A fantastic museum to visit and I would say a MUST for everyone who likes art and science. It is created on a scale that is explained to children and adults alike. Many inter-active panels touch to e.g. compares several paintings by well-known artists on the "Announcement" of the birth of Christ by the angel to the Virgin Mary. Really fascinating. Also there are videos of the inventions of Leonardo explained in several languages. The first floor has wonderful models in wood of certain of Leonardo's inventions. You can manipulate handles to make them work, or build a bridge or cupola - not as easy as it looks! My granddaughters of 10 and 12 yrs loved being there and we spent a long time looking round. Bravo to the persons who designed this exhibition as it is really brilliant.

Actually i don t think that venice should need such a museum...i think that da vinci is "florence" or "tuscany". In venice there were so many others painters or architects to start to know...

Dear Leonty77 thank you for your opinion. We think that Leonardo da Vinci is an important personality all over the world. Not everyone goes in Florence, Tuscany and Venice in the same trip so we wanted to give the opportunity to as many as possible to get to know Leonardo's life and genius through his art works, studies and inventions.

How much is the entrance fee? Is the Mona Lisa painting original or a replica ? Thank u
Written 26 February 2017
It is not even a replica, it is a photo of the picture. But would you really expect the most known painting here in this small museum?
