Palazzo Marcello Toderini is a small palace in Venice, in the Santa Croce sestiere, overlooking the Grand Canal on the Riva de Biasio. The structure is across the confluence of the Cannaregio Canal, between the Palazzo Zen and the Tassitura Luigi Bevilacqua.[2][3]

The small palace dates back to the 17th century. It was built by the ancient Roman family Marcello. Two Doges emerged from the family: Marcello Tegalliano (717–726) and Nicolò Marcello (1473–1474). Best known, however, are two brothers from this family who became musicians: Alessandro Marcello (1684–1750) and Benedetto Marcello (1686–1739).
