The Procuratie Vecchie reopen with signs of contemporaneity, built in the 16th century along the entire north side of Piazza San Marco at the behest of the Doge of the Republic of Venice Andrea Gritti, who involved three architects, Mauro Codussi, Bartolomeo Bon and Jacopo Sansovino, establishing the ancient modern adopted in the subsequent developments of the other Procuratie of the square.
