Lonely Planet review

You could easily stride right past this Renaissance church, built by Antonio Abbondi after a disastrous fire in 1514 destroyed much of the Rialto area. The church and its separate bell tower are camouflaged by surrounding houses, so their presence comes as a surprise. The frescoes inside the dome are by Pordenone, as is one of two altarpieces.
