The Palazzo Flangini is a Baroque style palace on the Grand Canal, located adjacent to Campo San Geremia in the sestiere of Cannaregio in Venice, Italy.
The palace was constructed in 1664–1682 to a design attributed to the architect Giuseppe Sardi. Others have incorrectly attributed the design to his mentor Baldassare Longhena. The palace was built by the Flangini family, a Greek Cypriot family in Venice. One of their members, Thomas Flanginis, in 1626 was the patron for the Flanginian school, a Greek school in Venice. The last of the family to own the palace was the cardinal Luigi or Ludovico Flangini (died 1804). [1] By the end of the 18th century, the palace was occupied by the Panciera family. The palace is asymmetric; it is surmised that at some time the family was unable to purchase the adjacent property and that the original plans called for a palace of twice the size. [2] [3]
