San Geremia, Religious building in Cannaregio district, Venice, Italy.
The San Geremia church stands at the intersection of the Grand Canal and Cannaregio Canal, featuring a brick bell tower and neoclassical design.
Originally constructed in 1100, the church underwent major reconstruction in 1753 under architect Carlo Corbellini, who implemented the Italian Neoclassical style.
The church preserves the remains of Saint Lucy of Syracuse, making it a significant destination for religious pilgrims seeking the patron saint of sight.
Visitors can reach San Geremia by taking vaporetto lines 1 or 2 to the San Marcuola stop, located along the Grand Canal.
The silver mask protecting Saint Lucy's face was commissioned in 1955 by Angelo Roncalli, who later became Pope John XXIII.
