San Zulian, Renaissance church in Merceria, Venice, Italy
The San Zulian church stands independently on a curve of the Merceria, featuring a classical temple facade made of Istrian stone.
First constructed in 832, the church underwent reconstructions in 1205 before Jacopo Sansovino designed its current structure between 1553 and 1570.
The interior displays paintings by Palma the Younger, Paolo Veronese, and Leonardo Corona, along with terracotta figures by Girolamo Campagna.
The church received extensive restoration work between 1989 and 1996, including facade cleaning, organ repair, and altar conservation funded by Stanley Seeger.
A bronze portrait of Tommaso Rangone sits above the entrance, showing him holding medicinal plants used for treating syphilis and yellow fever.
