Chiesa di Santa Maria della Pieta
Campo Santa Maria della Pietà is a small and atmospheric square located in the Castello district of Venice, just steps away from the lagoon and the lively Riva degli Schiavoni. Though more intimate than the grand campi of the city, it offers an authentic glimpse into everyday Venetian life. You will admire the ancient church from outside
Riva degli Schiavoni
