A Benedictine nuns' church two minutes behind St Mark's, where Giovanni Bellini's San Zaccaria Altarpiece (1505) hangs on the left wall. Behind it, the old church keeps Andrea del Castagno's 1442 apse frescoes, an early Florentine Renaissance work in Venice, above the crypt of the earlier church.

Good to know
- The church is free; only the museum with the San Tarasio chapel and the crypt is still paid (Procuratoria di San Marco, 2025).
- Tintoretto's Birth of St John the Baptist is in the sacristy area, not in the nave.
