San Giuseppe di Castello, Renaissance church in Castello district, Venice, Italy

San Giuseppe di Castello features a single nave with a presbytery, an apse, two small chapels, and twin therm windows on north and east sides.

The church construction started in 1512 following the Holy League formation and finished in 1525, receiving consecration in 1543 as inscribed above the entrance.

The interior presents artworks by Paolo Veronese and Jacopo Tintoretto, plus a ceiling painting by Gianantonio Torri from the 17th century.

The church stands near the Vaporetto stop San Zaccaria, with a small bridge connecting Campo San Giuseppe to Fondamenta San Giuseppe.

The mausoleum of Doge Marino Grimani and his wife Morosina Morosini remains inside, while a gallery allowed nuns to attend services privately.
