This big Franciscan convent church of the 16th century was built under a projct of Jacopo Sansovino and it shows the balanced and harmonious architectural schemes of the late Renaissance period.
The elegant classical style façade is by Andrea Palladio (1564-70).
Its interior is enriched with painting and sculpted works, such as Pala Giustinian by Veronese and in the chapel Madonna col Bambino e santi by Giovanni Bellini. The three cloisters are also worth a visit.
