Description
Although the small church of San Barnaba in this square has a "Holy Family" depiction attributed to Paolo Veronese, a 14th-century belltower, and a Tiepolo-style ceiling, it is more often associated with fact that newly-impoverished members of the aristocracy lived here in state-provided apartments during the Republic's declining years. The church has also gained a more recent distinction when it appeared--albeit as a library--in the film "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade." Ideally located, the San Barnaba square is right off the Ca' Rezzonico stop, between the Accademia/San Trovaso area and Campo San Margherita.
