Experience description

As it's kept time for 500 years, tickets to tour the Venice Clock Tower will show you why the Torre dell'Orologio will tick for 500 more.

Since the early Renaissance, the Venice Clock Tower has stood watch over St. Mark's Square, its gilded clock face visible from the surrounding lagoon as a symbol of wealth and power in Venice.

On this guided tour of Torre dell' Orologio, you can climb to the top to see spectacular views of Venice as you learn the history of the city's signature timepiece.

On your way, look out for symbols marking the passing of time, including the two bronze figures who ring the bell, an original since its installment in 1497.

Once you are back on the ground, admire the intricate archway under the tower connecting the commercial and spiritual centers of Venice.
