Sant'Andrea Apostolo, Medieval church in Chioggia, Italy.

Sant'Andrea Apostolo stands with a Baroque facade adorned with statues of saints, including Saint Andrew, Saint Peter, and Saint Paul.

The church originated in the 10th century as a Byzantine structure and became the episcopal seat when the diocese moved from Malamocco to Chioggia in 1110.

The interior displays notable artworks, including an altarpiece by Palma il Giovane and a statue of Saint John Nepomucene by local artists.

The church maintains regular opening hours for visitors to view its Latin cross layout with three naves and seven altars arranged counterclockwise.

The church tower contains the oldest functioning tower clock in existence, housed in a medieval watchtower from the mid-10th century.
