The Museum of the Miniscalchi-Erizzo Foundation is housed in the 15th-century palace of the same name in the Via Mamaso. It exhibits the furnishings and rich art collections of an ancient family. The 15 rooms, containing furnishings from the 16th and 18th Centuries, house numerous, varied collections. They are all organized by theme. Some of the rooms contain important archaeological finds from the Etruscan and Roman periods, including bronzes, glassware, ceramics and coins. Other rooms contain weapons and armor from the 16th and 17th Centuries while in others paintings and drawings by Venetian masters of the 16th and 17th Centuries are displayed. The Portrait of Nicolò Erizzo by Alessandro Longhi is one that particularly stands out.
