Create an itinerary including House of Marco Polo
House of Marco Polo features the ruins of a 13th-century Venetian house advertised as being once inhabited by one of the greatest travelers and travel writers of all times. Only four exterior walls remain from the original building. The best part of the house is a loggia on top of the narrow flight of stairs that affords expansive views over the roofs of the old town and coastal islands. The house next door serves as a tiny museum of Marco Polo, with waxwork tableaus, artifacts, and period furnishings.

  • This museum is now closed. Signs remain but we were told that the lease is up and the museum does not exist at this time. I do not know if they plan to relocate the museum.

  • Love it. Looks nice. Nice restauration and polite people. Perfect view. Around the corner you can find best mint ice cream.
  • museum was closed, but it’s amazing to look at the house polo on the site where it is believed he was exactly born. the sleepy town of korcula feels a more likely place for such an avid adventurer than the bustling metropolis of venice
