Visit the Foundation Giorgio Cini

Visit the Foundation Giorgio Cini

The Giorgio Cini Foundation is a place of culture and beauty, a peaceful oasis gathered on the small island of San Giorgio Maggiore.

The Giorgio Cini Foundation is a private organism, founded by Vittorio Cini in 1951 to commemorate his son Giorgio Cini, who died tragically in an airplane incident.  The non-lucrative organisation aims to support the humanistic research and to cultivate and spread the knowledge. In fact, the Foundation is a cultural institution that is internationally recognised as a cradle of humanistic (literary, musical and artistic) treasures.

In the itinerary, the visit to the Giorgio Cini Foundation also includes the “wood” of the Foundation and the Vatican Chapels, which are nestled in the natural environment of the wood. The 10 Vatican Chapels are unique models of chapels, built by ten architects for the pavilion during the first participation of the Vatican to the 16. Venice Biennale of Architecture.

After visiting the Foundation, you can come to Falciani Restaurant to have a good meal. Take a look at our menu!
