"A monumental sigh of relief, this splendid domed church was commissioned by Venice’s plague survivors as thanks for salvation." Full review
Time Out "This magnificent Baroque church, queening it over the entrance of the Grand Canal, is almost as recognisable an image of Venice as St Mark's or the Rialto bridge." Full review
Let's Go "Paintings by Tintoretto and Titian highlight the interior of the church, whose gorgeous, sweeping arches and fabulous gold altarpieces are sure to keep you in good spirits and good health." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This flamboyant church at the mouth of the Grand Canal—all round exterior, vast dome, and scalloped flourishes around the roof—is one of Venice's landmarks." Full review
Afar Magazine "A walk from the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute to the Chiesa di San Sebastiano is one of my favorites because it all happens in the Dorsoduro neighbourhood and takes less than an hour" Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "What’s this place all about?
With its off-kilter bell tower and simple brick exterior, Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta, a small, 7th-century church, doesn't look like much from the outside." Full review
Frommer's "Generally referred to as "La Salute," this crown jewel of 17th-century baroque architecture proudly reigns at a commercially and aesthetically important point." Full review
Independent "Its domes and spires still grace many a postcard, but tourists rarely venture inside to appreciate the art and frescoed ceilings."
