Santo Stefano, Venice, Gothic church in San Marco, Venice, Italy

The Santo Stefano church features red and white marble columns supporting a wooden ceiling shaped like an inverted ship's hull.

The Augustinian order initiated the construction of Santo Stefano in 1294, completing this sacred structure by 1325 with subsequent modifications in the 15th century.

The church contains the burial site of Doge Francesco Morosini and holds artworks by Tintoretto, including The Last Supper and The Agony in the Garden.

The church opens its doors to visitors who can explore the interior, view the leaning bell tower, and examine the Gothic portal crafted by Bartolomeo Bon.

During low tide, visitors can navigate beneath the church choir by gondola through the Rio del Santissimo waterway, viewing the structure from underneath.
