Santa Maria della Salute, Baroque church at Campo della Salute, Dorsoduro district in Venice, Italy.
The octagonal structure features two domes and bell towers, constructed from Istrian stone and marmorino along the Grand Canal entrance.
The Venetian Senate commissioned the church in 1631 as a response to a plague epidemic that claimed 47,000 lives in the city.
The interior contains notable artworks, including paintings by Titian and Tintoretto, with the Marriage at Cana displayed in the sacristy.
The church opens daily from 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM, with separate tickets required for the sacristy museum.
Every November 21, Venetians cross a temporary bridge over the Grand Canal during the Festa della Madonna della Salute celebration.
