Ca 'Zenobio degli Armeni Palace
Ca 'Zenobio degli Armeni Palacei in Venice is a project built at the turn of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries by Antonio Gaspari (a pupil of the most famous architect Baldassarre Longhena), the current Ca' Zenobio is built starting from a pre-existing Gothic building, already seat of 1664 of the noble Zenobio family of Veronese origin, for whom the building was designed and to which they gave the name.
In the mid-nineteenth century, when the family died out and more owners passed, including the Albrizzi, it became the seat of the Armenian Mechitarists of Venice, to whom we owe the second part of the name.
In the early twentieth century the structure benefited from a restoration by the Venetian architect Vincenzo Rinaldo.
Currently still owned by the Armenians, the building is often partially rented out to be the venue for exhibitions, concerts or receptions.

The sumptuous baroque halls of the building were the setting for famous music videos: in 1984 the video of Like a Virgin by Madonna was shot there, in 2004 the video clip of Vivimi by Laura Pausini.
