Chiesa dei Santi Apostoli

The church of San Canciano is traditionally considered to have been founded in 864, it was certainly destroyed by fire in 1105, and immediately rebuilt and completely renovated in 1330, and consecrated on 20 May 1351 by the Bishop of Jesolo, Marco Bianco. A further renovation was ordered in the 16th century, creating the present internal structure. At the beginning of the 18th century, the façade was completed according to a project by Antonio Gaspari, thanks to the donation of the parishioner Michele Tommasi, to whom the bust above the entrance door is dedicated.

The church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli was built between 1481 and 1489 and is one of the earliest Renaissance buildings constructed in Venice. During the 16th century, interventions were made to the interior. The pilastered façade is divided into two orders, reversed from the classical canons of Vitruvius: the lower order, with Corinthian capitals, is architraved, while the upper order, Ionic, is composed of 5 blind arches. The façade is dominated by a large semi-circular pediment, decorated with a rose window, three oculi and two marble circles.

The church of San Giacomo di Rialto is generally considered the oldest church in Venice, consecrated on 25 March 421. However, the first certain mention of the church dates back to May 1152. In 1513 it survived the serious fire that devastated the adjacent commercial area and in 1601 the Doge Marino Grimani ordered its restoration, during which the floor was raised to cope with the high waters. On the outside, a gabled bell tower, its large clock and its Gothic portico, one of the last examples of this type in the city. The interior follows the traditional cross plan with a central dome, imitated later during the Renaissance.
