Built by Pietro Lombardo, his sons Antonio and Tullio and his scholars, the church building was commissioned by the nobleman Angelo Amadi to house the miraculous icon of the Virgin Mary and the Amadi family coats of arms are engraved on the doors.
The building design started in 1481 by the architect Pietro Lombardo, one of the Founding Fathers of the Renaissance in Venice.
The first people to be there were pilgrims who came with offerings to an icon of Virgin Mary that was said to perform miracles, which included bringing a drowned man back to life.
Built during the early Renaissance, the beautiful 'Santa Maria dei Miracoli', the 'Marble church', is one of the finest examples of Venetian Renaissance architecture and one of the most beautiful and exquisite religious buildings in Europe.
Located northeast of the Rialto Bridge in Cannaregio, the 'Chiesa di Santa Maria dei Miracoli' is one of the most beautiful churches in Venice.
And tourists come to see the historic place with inscriptions on the walls about fish-related regulatory measures in the times of the Republic of Venice.
Near the Rialto Bridge on the San Polo side is a neo-Gothic pavilion built in 1907, the 'Pescaria', the famous 'Fish Market' where on any day of the week except Sunday, Venetians could shop fresh fish, browsing the colourful stalls located under a loggia near the Grand Canal.
But in 1459, the bankers who worked nearby complained to the government about the stinking air and screaming fishtraders, so that the fish market was moved to the other side of the bridge.
At the foot of the Rialto Bridge, on the San Marco side of the Grand Canal, 'Pescaria San Bartolomeo' was a onetime location of the fish market.
decorated with stone reliefs towards the base, on one side the scene of the 'Annunciation' and on the other side Venice's patron saints 'St. Mark' and 'St. Theodore', 'Ponte de Rialto' is a masterpiece and one of the greatest architectural icons of Venice.
With a single span, supported at either end by thousands of buried wooden piles, surmounted by a double row of small arched shops, crowned with central arches allowing pedestrians to pass from the central shopping lane to the panoramic external steps,
But critics and reality are often completely different things. So the 'Rialto Bridge', the most famous of the four bridges that cross the 'Grand Canal' in Venice is considered an architectural marvel and a great, outstanding engineering achievement of the Renaissance period.
The audacious engineering of the bridge and the long construction time drew a lot of criticism and the many naysayers predicted that the bridge would crumble.
Ultimately, in 1588 the commission of the 'Rialto Bridge' was awarded to the Swiss engineer Antonio da Ponte who built the bridge in marble and the construction took three years.
A competition was held for the design of 'Rialto Bridge' and many famous artists and architects, including Michelangelo, submitted designs for it.
In the 16-th century it was designed by Antonio da Ponte, built of stone, and remained as we see it today, a center of shopping in Venice, heading to the famous Rialto market.
Venice’s most famous bridge and one of the four spanning the 'Canal Grande', the oldest bridge across the canal, the 'Ponte di Rialto' was initially a drawbridge made of wood by Nicolò Barattieri, to allow the passage of ships.
In the heydays of the Republic of Venice, Rialto was its world-famous commercial center, renowned for its exotic markets, banks, and as a popular gathering place to meet and hear the latest news.
Rialto is in the San Polo district of Venice, joining it to San Marco. It's a central point both within Venice and along the 'Grand Canal' and the oldest settled area of the city.
The free samples are so tasty though
Convert it to fish restaurants
Fish doesn’t really travel well that for sure, and the hotel gets upset when you cook it in the microwave.
Maybe they should offer fresh fish online. Otherwise, Rialto fish market is a legacy bricks and mortar store with the same challenges as Sears and other retailers going out of business. Evolve or disappear.
Right. They have no place to prepare it, typically.
Read the article, wondering why the Rialto fish market not selling to the restaurants that serve the tourists?
Venice sucks as a city. It smells bad, its very difficult to get around and everything is super expensive. Let the city fall into the sea. Go to Rome instead.
