The neoclassical facade of the church is very familiar also to visitors on their first time in Venice. This place became famous because of some scenes of the film ‘Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade' (1989) and "Summer time" (1955).
A 14th century cathedral which has preserved its original Gothic character. This church worked together with the Scuola Grande just beside it, both belonging to Carmelites and therefore dedicated to the worship of the Virgin of Mount Carmel in Palestine (Santa Maria del Carmelo).
In this square stands what remains of an ancient palace inhabited in the distant past by the Moro family and known as the "house of Othello".
This Palazzo is considered to be one of the most significant examples of Venetian late Baroque design, both architecturally and in interior decor. Throughout the XVIII century the Palace became a venue for intense intellectual life. Since 1993, after a complete restoration, it now serves as a research centre for Armenian studies.
One of Venice’s leading art venues thanks to its magnificent cycle of paintings by a major painter in the 16th century, who started the battle for freedom of artistic expression. Next to the Church there was the convent which now houses the humanities faculty of Ca’ Foscari University, re-designed by the famous Italian designer Carlo Scarpa in a dialectic twist with the old church.
This church is the only one with two bell towers, tradition says it was built in 416 to fulfil a vow. This part of the city is very much Venetian and you can find kids playing in the calle in the afternoon.
A 12th Century church with a Veneto-Byzantine tower bell and the interiors all in wood. Early Venice was an aggregation of independent communities, each with its own individual characteristics. This church is an extreme case: its inhabitants (all fishermen) gathered in the church we are going to enter in a while to elect their own doge, who would have dressed in scarlet and following a symbolic ritual, go to the Doge’s Palace in Saint Mark’s to receive the embrace of the true doge.

This wide fondamenta was once called “Carbonaia” (because of the coal - carbone in Italian - that used to be unloaded here). Paved in 1519 in was then called “delle Zattere” because here docked the rafts - Zattere - with wood for the Arsenale arriving from the mainland by river and then by lagoon.
