Chiesa di San Zaccaria<\/h1>\n

The first church on this site was said to have been founded by Saint Magnus in the 7th century. But there is no 100% proof of that left. The first documented church was built here by Doge Agnello Partecipazio. It was dedicated to Zacharias the father of John the Baptist. His bones were sent as a gift to Venice by the Byzantine Emperor Leo V while the church was being built. In the 1170s the church was rebuild and finally replaced by a Gothic church in the 15th century. Almost every wall and the ceiling is covered with paintings by 17th and 18th century artists.
\nThe crypt below is from the older church and the eight tombs of early doges down there are usually covered by water. <\/p>\n
