Chiesa di San Salvador
CatholicVenedik, Veneto, Italy
The Church of Santissimo Salvatore, usually known by its Venetian name of San Salvador, is a church in Venice, northern Italy. It is located on the Campo San Salvador, along the Mercerie, the main shopping street of Venice. The church was first consecrated in 1177 by Pope Alexander III shortly after his reconciliation with Emperor Frederick Barbarossa at nearby San Marco. The present church, however, was begun in around 1508 by Giorgio Spavento and continued after his death the following year by Tullio Lombardo, Vincenzo Scamozzi and possibly Jacopo Sansovino. They built a large hall church, formed from three Greek crosses placed end to end.
