★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Luogo suggestivo e ricco di storia. La chiesa presenta poche aperture verso l'esterno cosicché l'aula sia perennemente in penombra. Questa caratteristica rende il luogo allo stesso tempo mistico ma affascinante. Ammirevoli le pale del Tiepolo e del Veronese. Assolutamente da visitare.
 An evocative place rich in history. The church has few openings to the outside so that the hall is perpetually in half-light. This feature makes the place both mystical and fascinating at the same time. The altarpieces by Tiepolo and Veronese are admirable. A must visit.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Sehr schöne Kirche. Der Turm steht etwas außerhalb. Der Eintritt kostet 3€, den man sich mit dem Kirchenpass Venedig sparen kann.
Very nice church. The tower is just outside. Admission costs 3 €, which you can save with the Venice Church Pass.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Chiesa di San Polo is very interesting church, dedicated to the Apostle Paul. It gives its name to the San Polo sestiere of the city, next to a beautiful and spacious square. Founded in the 9th century, the church of San Polo has since undergone two important interventions over the centuries that have changed their original Byzantine structure (two lions carrying pillars at the base of the bell tower are probably part of the original building). The first alteration was made in the 15th century, with transformations based on late Gothic styles and a beautiful portal made by Venetian architect Bartolomeu Bon, the second alteration in 1804 was made by architect Davide Rossi who transformed the church into a neoclassical style. The interior of the church is interesting and richly decorated with beautiful paintings by famous Venetian artists. Thus, inside the church, the painting "The Last Supper" is kept in the facade and on the first altar on the right side of "The Assumption of the Saints" by Jacopo Tintoretto. The presbytery space is entirely decorated with canvases by Jacopo Palma the Younger, while on the right and left are the Chapel of the Sacrament, a precious longobard work decorated with eighteenth-century Salviatia frescoes and an altar with Paolo Veronese's "Marriage of the Virgin." On the second altar in the left aisle is the canvas "The Virgin Appearing to San Giovanni Nepomucen", the famous work of Giambattista Tiepola (1754).

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Loved the Stations of the Cross by Tiepolo. Beautifully painted with so much detail. They are displayed in a small separate room off the rear if the church. Not to be missed is the immense painting of of The Last Supper by Tintoretto finished about 1570.
The church itself is dark, not many windows. It seems somber but has an intimacy missing is grander and more light filled churches.
