Description
Experience the Full Splendor of Saint Mark's Basilica.
Explore three distinct sections of the Basilica complex and enjoy a breathtaking view of Piazza San Marco from the terrace of the Loggia dei Cavalli.
As the resting place of Saint Mark's relics, the Basilica di San Marco (Saint Mark’s Basilica) stands as an iconic symbol of Venice recognized worldwide.
Originally constructed by the Venetians in 820 AD and consecrated in 832 AD, the Basilica underwent significant changes after a devastating fire in the early 10th century. The structure we see today began to take shape in 1063 AD under the leadership of Doge Domenico Contarini and his successors.
Visitors to the Basilica can also access the Pala d’Oro, a stunning altarpiece renowned for its intricate gold craftsmanship and encrusted with precious gems. This masterpiece, a prime example of Byzantine art, is one of the most significant treasures within the Basilica, offering a glimpse into Venice’s opulent artistic heritage.
The sacred relics, elaborate mosaics, and grand architectural design, coupled with the chance to view the Pala d’Oro, make the Basilica a must-visit destination, firmly establishing it as one of Venice’s most important and awe-inspiring landmarks.
