Description

The church of San Michele in Isola is immediately visible on landing at the cemetery-island. Built with white stone from Istria by Mauro Codussi, this was the first Renaissance church built in Venice. For safety reasons, visitors cannot access the front of the church, which means that its luminous façade can only be admired from the sea. The church is entered via a side door, which leads into the cloisters to the left of the cemetery entrance. Inside, the nave is adorned with a sumptuous coffered ceiling.
