Venecia / Italia

Venecia es una ciudad ubicada en el noreste de Italia. Es también la capital de la región véneta y de la provincia de Venecia. Su centro histórico, declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco,[2]​ está situado en un conjunto de islas en la laguna de Venecia, en el norte del mar Adriático. Su particularidad geográfica, así como su milenaria historia y su riquísimo patrimonio monumental y artístico, han hecho de Venecia uno de los destinos turísticos más populares del mundo. La ciudad está construida sobre un archipiélago de 118 pequeñas islas , casi todas ellas unidas entre sí por 455 puentes e incluye seis distritos o municipalità en tierra firme donde vive la mayoría de la población; unos 60 mil habitantes en el centro insular y 200 mil en tierra firme. Se llega al centro de Venecia por el Puente de la Libertad, el cual desde la vecina localidad de Mestre accede al Piazzale Roma. En el interior de la ciudad no hay tráfico rodado, siendo, a excepción de la navegación por los canales que separan a las islas, una ciudad totalmente peatonal. El transporte colectivo se realiza mediante embarcaciones transbordadoras conocidas como vaporettos. Están a cargo de la empresa municipal ACTV.[3]​ Sus canales componen un gran entramado a modo de calles que parten del Gran Canal, gran vía por donde discurren multitud de embarcaciones, grandes y pequeñas, las más conocidas de las cuales son las llamadas góndolas.

San Cassiano, Venice

Venecia / Italia

San Cassiano is a 14th-century Roman Catholic church located in the San Polo sestiere of the Italian city of Venice. A church has stood on the site since 726 with the present building dedicated to Saint Cassian of Imola being consecrated in 1376 and re-modelled during the 17th century. It has a plain exterior with several adjacent buildings overlapping it. Its interior however is richly decorated in a Baroque style. The church is located on the Campo San Cassiano, site of the world's first public opera house, west of the Rialto Bridge and is open to visitors Tuesday-Saturday mornings.The church houses three paintings by the Italian artist Tintoretto, including The Crucifixion of Christ painted in 1568 which the art critic John Ruskin described as, "the finest [example of a Crucifixion painting] in Europe". However, the most famous painting associated with the church is paradoxically one which is no longer there. The San Cassiano altarpiece, painted for this church by Antonello da Messina, was the first major example of oil painting in the city. It disappeared from the church in the 17th century and was cut into sections; the remaining known pieces are re-united in Vienna.

San Zulian

Venecia / Italia

The Chiesa di San Giuliano , commonly called San Zulian in the Venetian dialect, is a church in Venice. San Zulian is in the parish of San Salvador. It is situated on the Merceria, the main shopping street of the city. Originally a structure from the 9th century; it underwent a number of reconstructions, including likely after the 1105 fire of the neighborhood. The façade was constructed in 1553-1554 by Jacopo Sansovino, and completed after his death in 1570 by Alessandro Vittoria. The flattened classical temple façade was paid for by the scholar Tommaso Rangone, whose bronze seated portrait appears above the door. In his hands, the physician Rangone holds sarsaparilla and guaiacum, two plants which he used to treat syphilis and yellow fever. The reliefs also depict a map of the world as was known at his death. As befitting his broad-ranging interests in classic texts, the flanking inscriptions are in Latin , Greek and Hebrew text. The interior was also designed by Sansovino, and the church consecrated in 1580.

San Pietro di Castello (church)

Venecia / Italia

The Basilica di San Pietro di Castello , commonly called San Pietro di Castello, is a Roman Catholic minor basilica of the Patriarch of Venice located in the Castello sestiere of the Italian city of Venice. The present building dates from the 16th century, but a church has stood on the site since at least the 7th century. From 1451 to 1807, it was the city's cathedral church, though hardly playing the usual dominant role of a cathedral, as it was overshadowed by the "state church" of San Marco, and inconveniently located. During its history the church has undergone a number of alterations and additions by some of Venice's most prominent architects. Andrea Palladio received his first commission in the city of Venice from the Patriarch Vincenzo Diedo to re-build the facade and interior of St Pietro, but Diedo's death delayed the project. After St Mark's Basilica became Venice’s official cathedral , San Pietro fell into a state of disrepair. It was firebombed during the First World War and only through the efforts of conservation organisations has it been restored to its former state. Its ongoing conservation is now managed through its membership of the Chorus Association of Venetian churches. The church is located on San Pietro di Castello , a small island off the eastern end of the main city of Venice.
