Murano is a series of islands linked by bridges in the Venetian Lagoon renowned for its long tradition of Venetian glassmaking.

Murano's reputation as a center for glassmaking was born when the Venetian Republic, fearing fire and the destruction of the city's mostly wooden buildings, ordered glassmakers to move their furnaces to Murano in 1291. 

Today, Murano is home to the famous Museo del Vetro or Murano Glass Museum in the Palazzo Giustinian, which holds displays on the history of glassmaking.
