San Simeone Piccolo (or San Simeone and Giuda)
Churches in Venice - Santa Croce
This is the first eye-catching landmark on leaving the central station of Santa Lucia.
Built in the 9th century through merit of the Aoldo and Vrioso families, the church underwent various restorations until 1718, when it was rebuilt on a plan by Giovanni Scalfarotto (c 1700-64) in the tradition set by Palladio (1508-80) and Longhena (1598-1682), imitation of the Pantheon in Rome.
