HERITAGE

HARRY'S BAR

On May 13, 1931, Giuseppe Cipriani Senior opened Harry’s Bar in Venice where Giuseppe’s wife, Giulietta, had found the perfect spot: a former rope warehouse on a dead-end street. At the time, there was no bridge yet to connect it to St. Mark’s Square, so customers could not just pass by – they would have to come on purpose. The original decor was designed by another one of Giuseppe’s customers, Baron Giovanni Rubin de Cervin, director of the Naval Museum, who also drew the logo of a barman. Elegant, yet informal, Harry’s Bar is where foreigners come to feel like locals and Venetians feel like they are abroad.

Throughout its 92 years of history, Harry’s Bar has been the witness of the XX Century in Venice. Its importance was also acknowledged by the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage that declared it a National Landmark in 2001. No other public place in Italy had received the same award in the same Century.

Our Soul

From the first days of Harry’s Bar in Venice, there was always a crowd of people from all walks of life, merrily sipping Bellini, chatting, and living the good life, a Cipriani tradition. Four generations later, that same spirit has led to the opening in 2021 of Casa Cipriani New York a true private members club in modern sense, in the spectacular landmark Battery Maritime building. Carefully selected prestigious historic properties around the world, with old fashioned dedication to service, sophisticated accommodations, Cipriani cuisine and state of the art wellness are transformed into welcoming homes.
