The Archaeological Museum, or Museo Archeologico, occupy rooms within both the Sansovino Library and the Procuratie Nuove. It was created to showcase the collection of Domenico Grimani, son of Doge Antonio Grimani, who donated his entire collection of Green, Roman and early sculptures, along with his library, to the State in 1523.
Today the Archaeological Museum of Venice provides visitors an opportunity to escape from the crowds in St. Marks Square, for a quiet moment indoors.
