Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni
Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni, Renaissance art museum in Castello, Italy
The Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni displays intricate paintings by Vittore Carpaccio depicting scenes of Saint George and other patron saints.
Founded in 1451 as a brotherhood for Dalmatian merchants and sailors, the building was renovated from a former hospital of Saint Catherine.
The main hall contains a cycle of paintings completed between 1502 and 1507, representing the strong connection between Venetian and Slavic communities.
Located near Riva degli Schiavoni waterfront, this museum receives approximately 20,000 visitors annually and maintains limited wheelchair access.
Pietro di Salo created the central relief on the facade showing Saint George killing the dragon, marking the building's dedication to this patron saint.
