Palazzo Querini Benzon is a palace in Venice located in the San Marco district and overlooking the Grand Canal. It is placed between the small Casa De Sprit and Casa Tornielli , at the confluence of the Ca' Michiel stream. Opposite are Palazzo Bernardo and Palazzo Querini Dubois.
Built in the early 18th century, the palace takes the place of a structure previously demolished. The palazzo became famous thanks to the noblewoman Marina Querini , a wife of Pietro Giovanni Benzon, who, in the final period the Republic of Venice , made her residence one of the most renowned literary salons in the city, thanks to the attendance of many important artists of the time, including Lord Byron, Thomas Moore, Ugo Foscolo, and Giacomo Casanova. Today the palace is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
