Beautiful church with two facades completed in 1592 and reworked several times.

Beautiful church whose two facades were completed in 1492. It houses a triptych by Vivarini, a Last Supper by Bassano and a polyptych by Palma il Vecchio depicting Saint Barbara, who in the 16th century was the archetype of female beauty. In the oratory there is a Madonna and Child and the Saint Dominic by Giambattista Tiepolo (XVIII century). Note also the mascaron in grimace that is supposed to ward off the devil on the door of the campanile.
