Chiesa di San Francesco della Vigna
-
In the back alleys of Castello, this Franciscan church sports a combination of architectural styles courtesy of both Sansovino and Palladio (see Andrea Palladio), who designed the façade. The colonnaded cloister can be seen while you’re appreciating Giovanni Bellini’s Madonna and Child (1507). Playgrounds have replaced the 13th-century vineyards (vigna ).
