TIME : 2016/2/18 21:17:23

Built by Doge Vitale Falier in the 11th century, Chiesa di San Vidal got a 1706–14 Palladian facelift to comemmorate Doge Francesco Morosoni's victory over Turkish foes. Inside is St Vitale on Horseback and Eight Saints by Vittore Carpaccio, featuring his signature traffic-light red and miniaturist’s attention to detail. The deconsecrated church now serves as a concert venue .
