Lonely Planet review

Worth a peep in this 11th-century church, if you find it open, is the magnificent ceiling fresco by Giandomenico Tiepolo, the Gloria della Croce e di San Leone IX (The Glory of the Cross and St Leon IX). On the left as you enter by the main door is a work by Titian, the Apostolo Giacomo il Maggiore (Apostle James the Great). Canaletto was baptised and, eventually, buried in this, his parish church.
