Santa Caterina, Gothic former church in Cannaregio, Italy.
The Santa Caterina church features a ship's-keel roof structure with two aisles and contains a substantial nuns' gallery within its Gothic framework.
Built in the 11th century by the Sacchini friars, the church underwent reconstruction in the mid-15th century before Napoleon suppressed it in 1807.
The church previously housed Tintoretto's six paintings depicting Saint Catherine's life, which were later transferred to the Patriarchal Palace.
The former church now functions as part of the Liceo Marco Foscarini educational complex and opens during specific Biennale exhibitions.
During World War I, the church building served as a military hospital before its transformation into an educational institution.
