Traveler reviews
CityScrolls
★★★★★4 months agoThis small yet modern museum features four rooms painted in Burano's vivid colors, showcasing lacemaking samples from the 16th century onwards, along with a few contemporary creations. We recommend timing your visit around midday, when Burano is at its busiest, so you can enjoy a break from the crowds outside (and stay cool with air conditioning in summer).

★★★★★10 months agoIt's a very small museum but you'll find some incredible lace works. The video on the ground floor before you go up to see the works is quite long but worth watching. Spacious locker room is available for you to store your belongings for comfortable time in the museum
