Total rip-off, small and overpriced museum is full of replicas. Nice building to look at from the outside.
The new prison on the other side of the bridge of sighs..
Thought-provoking. Casanova didn't escape from this side he escaped from the cell's inside the ducal palace. I don't think we would've heard much abouts him if his stay was in there. 1m thick walls.. no escape possible.

It was a nice experience, I had learned a lot of things about the conditions of detention and about torture , as well I had learned more about the city and the history of the city from Tiziana Azzalini. She is a great tour guide, friendly, with knowledge that exceeds the position she holds and keeps you interested until the end. I suggest you look for tour guide Tiziana Azzalini.
Short (30 min).but excellent tour, Kristen was a very good guide with so much knowledge and very nice. Best to book directly online, you do not need to go through Venice tours SRL company. Not the best communication from the company when we wanted to change our tour time but Kristen was extremely nice and allowed us to start our tour early.
Very interesting! Includes lots of authentic instruments and architectural features. The tour guide was amazing and very willing to answer all questions. Really recommend!
A great way to learn more about the new prison and lead by a wonder little team! Would recommend combining a tour here this with a visit to the doge palace to get a real good look round
The prison building is connected to Dodge Palace by the bridge of Sighs
The prison is magnificent and worths visiting
You can do it at the end of the Dodge Palace tour
