Sono stata alla messa festiva della domenica ore 10.. sono rimasta delusa dal prete in quanto ha fatto campagna vaccinale dicendo di non credere nei messaggi della nostra madre. E dobbiamo vaccinarci . Nn mi sembra suo dovere.. in quanto siamo tutti uguali davanti a dio e lui deve solamente riportare la sua parola.. consiglio di farsi um giretto a medjugorie per capire !!!
I was at the festive mass on Sunday at 10 am .. I was disappointed by the priest as he did a vaccination campaign saying he did not believe in our mother's messages. And we have to get vaccinated . Nn seems to me his duty .. as we are all equal in front of God and he only has to report his word .. I recommend taking a stroll in Medjugorje to understand!

Interessante e panoramica. Si può ammirare l'orologio più antico del mondo (non funzionante però ?) Dalla sommità, nelle giornate terse, la vista può spaziare a 360 gradi e fino ai colli euganei
Interesting and panoramic. You can admire the oldest clock in the world (but not functioning ?) From the summit, on clear days, the view can span 360 degrees and up to the Euganean hills

Hát az úgy volt, hogy már visszafelé álltunk meg ez a templom előtt: bemenjünk vagy ne? Ha már itt vagyunk... Nem szabad kihagyni, már tudom. Sokkal többet ad belül, mint kívül.
Well, was that when we stopped back in front of the temple, did we go in or not? If we're here ... Not to be missed, I already know. It gives you much more inside than outside.

Eine der wichtigsten Sakralbauten in Chioggia ist Sant‘ Andrea. Der heutige Barockbau geht auf das Jahr 1743 zurück, auf den Grundmauern einer Kirche aus dem 15.Jh. diese wiederum an Stelle der ersten Kirche vor ca. 700 Jahren erbaut wurde. Das Baptisterium erschaffen von Jacopo Tatti (Sansovino) konnten wir leider nicht betrachten weil die Kirche geschlossen war. Unbedingt zu betrachten ist der Glockenturm mit der ältesten Turmuhr der Welt, hergestellt 1386 durch Giovanni Dondi dell’Orologio.
One of the most important religious buildings in Chioggia is Sant 'Andrea. Today's baroque building dates back to 1743, on the foundations of a church from the 15th century. this in turn was built in place of the first church about 700 years ago. Unfortunately we could not see the Baptistery created by Jacopo Tatti (Sansovino) because the church was closed. The bell tower with the oldest tower clock in the world, made in 1386 by Giovanni Dondi dell’Orologio, is a must-see.

Bellissima chiesa barocca costruita nel 1743 sulle spoglie di due precedenti chiese risalenti al VII e al XIV secolo. Dedicata all' apostolo Sant'Andrea, la chiesa è molto luminosa e riccamente decorata, oltre a custodire tante tele e opere. Chiesa usata anche per concerti serali. Bellissima la torre a l suo fianco, del XII sec., che ospita tra l'altro l'orologio da torre più antico che si conosca, 1386. La torre è adibita a museo visitabile. Vale una visita.
Beautiful baroque church built in 1743 on the remains of two previous churches dating back to the seventh and fourteenth centuries. Dedicated to the apostle Sant'Andrea, the church is very bright and richly decorated, as well as housing many paintings and works. Church also used for evening concerts. The 12th-century tower on its side is beautiful, which also houses the oldest known tower clock, 1386. The tower is used as a museum that can be visited. Worth a visit.

The beautiful Church of San Andrea Apostolo is the oldest religious building in Chioggia, and as a bell tower it has a medieval watchtower dating back to the mid-10th century, which preserves the oldest functional clock tower in the world, made by family Dondi, famous watch manufacturers. The church is located along the main street in Chioggia, Corso del Popolo. The first traces of this building date back to the 10th century, in the Byzantine style with a Latin cross plan, divided into three naves by a series of pillars. At the time of the transfer of the episcopal seat from the island of Malamocco to Chioggia in 1110, the church of Sant'Andrea became the episcopal church, which housed the relics of the patron saint of San Felice and San Fortunato, until the completion of the extensions in the church of the Nativity of Mary, which subsequently became a cathedral. The present church of S. Andrea was built in 1743, after the collapse of the apse on the nearby church of San Giacomo in 1739, and therefore the church of S. Andrea also suffered many significant damages, and needed restoration. The facade is in baroque style. The interior is beautiful with many significant works of art by famous masters, among which seven magnificent altars stand out. Inside, the baptistery is attributed to Sansovino, while the most significant work of art is a canvas depicting the Crucifixion of the great Venetian master Palma il Vecchio. The ceiling and part of the walls are painted with various fresh and dry techniques, performed by different artists between the 19th and 20th centuries, with decorations and references to the naval and fishing world of the Venetian lagoon. The central nave is adorned with geometric and naturalistic motifs and with Latin letters in large letters that recall the events of San Andrea. In the central nave, inside three medallions, it is possible to see The Call, the Martyrdom and the Glory of San Andrea, made by Giuseppe Cherubini in 1929.
