San Maurizio, Neoclassical former church in San Marco district, Venice, Italy
The San Maurizio church exhibits grand symmetrical forms with classical elements, including columns and precise architectural proportions throughout its stone structure.
Originally constructed before the 16th century, the church underwent complete reconstruction in 1806 under the direction of architect Giannantonio Selva during Napoleon's rule.
The building currently functions as the Museum of Music, displaying a collection of Baroque instruments and documents related to Venetian musical heritage.
Located in Campo San Maurizio, visitors can access the museum without paying an entrance fee while exploring the San Marco neighborhood.
The structure once contained the early studio of Antonio Canova, who later became one of Italy's most influential neoclassical sculptors.
