Place of worship

The Jesuits' Baroque church near the Fondamente Nove, famous for its green-and-white inlaid marble, which even covers the organ lofts. Titian's Martyrdom of St Lawrence (1548-59), a night scene lit by fire and torches, hangs in the first chapel on the left.

Good to know

  • The Titian is dark: stand back near the door of the chapel and let your eyes adjust.
  • It is two minutes from the Fondamente Nove vaporetto stop for Murano, so see it on the way.
