You're in: IVT / PHOTO TOUR / CHURCHES / SESTIERE OF SANTA CROCE / CHURCH OF SANT'ANDREA APOSTOLO

S. ANDREA APOSTOLO - Sestiere of Santa Croce, XV sec. -

Founded at the same time of the adjacent monastery in the 1329, S. Andrea della Zidara's Church suffered many restorations so that only the facade remains of its original Gothic aspect.
Interior has just one nave with a flat ceiling and keeps a precious Gothic choir and some frescoes of the seventeenth century.
Soon the visitor will appreciate the painting Cristo morto fra San Carlo Borromeo e angeli by Domenico Tintoretto. The church keeps even two important altar-pieces: Sant'Agostino e due angeli by Paris Bordon and San Gerolamo by Veronese.
