Lonely Planet review

This modest and long-abandoned church (San Zan Degolà, or St John the Headless, in Venetian, known in less blood-curdling fashion in English as St John the Baptist) has been reborn as a home for Russian Orthodox services. Inside, some 14th-century frescoes remain. On the south wall facing the campo is a small, sculpted medallion of a lopped-off head.
