San Michele Arcangelo

San Michele Arcangelo, Catholic church in San Marco, Venice, Italy.

San Michele Arcangelo, also called Sant'Angelo, was a church in Venice's San Marco district whose plain facade faced Campo Sant'Angelo, opposite the convent of Santo Stefano. It had a large portal, three large semicircular windows and, on the right, a tall spired bell tower that collapsed in December 1455 during renovation work by Aristotele Fioravanti. Inside were nine altars.

The church developed in Venice and served as a religious hub for the San Marco district over many centuries. It was destroyed in 1837, ending its role as a place of worship.

The church appeared in paintings by Canaletto, who depicted Campo Sant'Angelo and its surrounding religious buildings. These artworks show how central the structure was to the visual identity of the neighborhood.

Nothing was built where the church stood, so the site is now open ground within Campo Sant'Angelo, in the San Marco district. The square keeps the name Sant'Angelo, and the spot lies a short walk from the Santo Stefano convent and the Rio that once ran beside the facade.

Before demolition, Emmanuele Antonio Cicogna recorded more than 100 inscriptions inside the church for his six-volume work Delle Inscrizioni Veneziane. Among the burials he listed were the orator Giovanni Querini, Bishop Sebastiano Alcaini of Belluno and the lawyer Jacopo Pighetti.
