San Canciano, Religious building in Cannaregio district, Venice, Italy.
San Canciano church presents a white stone facade with classical columns and decorative elements that define its architectural composition.
Originally constructed in 864 by refugees from Aquileia seeking safety from invasions, the church underwent reconstruction in 1351 and major modifications in the 18th century.
The church contains artworks by Giuseppe Angeli and Bartolomeo Letterini, alongside an altarpiece depicting the martyrdom of Saints Cantius, Cantianus, and Cantianilla.
The church opens daily for visitors, with mass celebrations on Sundays, and stands near the Campo San Canzian water bus stop.
The bell tower, dating from 1532, maintains its original structure and represents one of the older surviving campaniles in Venice.
