Palazzo Tetta is a distinctive 17th-century building located in the Castello district of Venice, widely celebrated for being one of the few structures in the city surrounded by water on three sides. This unique positioning—created by the convergence and subsequent bifurcation of the Rio di Santa Maria into the Rio Tetta and the Rio di San Giovanni Laterano—gives the palace the appearance of an island, often described as a “house peninsula”.

 

In front is the Ponte dei Conzafelzi a small but distinctive iron bridge in the Castello district of Venice, spanning the Rio de Santa Marina between Fondamenta dei Felzi and Calle Bragadin (also known as Calle del Pinelli). It is one of Venice’s relatively rare all‑iron bridges, built in the mid‑19th century and noted for its ornate cast‑iron railings and elegant, slightly arched profile.
