The Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore is located on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice and is part of the monastery of the same name. The church was designed by Andrea Palladio. The first stone was laid in 1566 and completed in 1610. The current bell tower, the fourth highest in the city and 63 meters high, was designed by the Somascan architect Benedetto Buratti and dates back to 1791. The one built in 1467 had collapsed in 1774. With a square barrel, with a cell in Istrian stone and a conical spire, it offers a unique view of Venice and the lagoon.
Many paintings of great interest are preserved in the basilica. The most important are: Madonna Enthroned and Saints by Sebastiano Ricci; the Last Supper and Gathering of Manna by Jacopo Tintoretto (in the presbytery); other canvases by Palma il Giovane, Domenico Tintoretto, Jacopo Bassano. Also noteworthy are the choir stalls, with bas-reliefs by Albert Van der Brulle.
