San Salvador, Renaissance church in San Marco district, Italy.
The church interior follows a design of three Greek crosses in sequence, with domes and lanterns illuminating each section of the building.
First documented in 1067, the church underwent reconstruction in 1506 under architects Giorgio Spavento and Tullio Lombardo, with the facade added in 1663.
Two major paintings by Titian grace the interior: the Transfiguration behind the main altar and the Annunciation at Sansovino's altar section.
Located at Campo San Salvador 4835 near Rialto Bridge, the church maintains regular opening hours and provides guided tours of its art collection.
A cannonball from the 1849 Austrian bombardment remains embedded in the left column of the church facade, marking a period of Venetian independence.
