There are many churches in Venice and we visited just a few, including this one - known locally as I Gesuiti (the Jesuits). The church was consecrated in 1728 and is very ornate inside - I will post some interior shots soon.
A couple more shots in the comment below - the second of which shows how difficult it can be to get far enough away to photograph the front of many Venetian churches.
