Santa Giustina, Venice, Former church in Castello, Venice, Italy.

Santa Giustina features a marble facade with pronounced architectural elements and an octagonal structure topped by a central dome.

The church underwent reconstruction in 1677 under the direction of architect Baldassare Longhena, commissioned by Giovanni Soranzo, procurator of St Mark.

The structure represents the development of religious architecture in Venice during the 17th century, incorporating elements of Italian Baroque design principles.

Located at coordinates 45.438056, 12.346111, the building stands as a reference point for visitors exploring the Castello district of Venice.

The transformation from an active church to a deconsecrated building in 1896 marks the end of its association with Augustinian nuns.
