Observera att kyrkan stänger i fyra timmar mitt på dagen, mellan kl. 12 och 16. Det är lätt att nå den till fots från centrala Venedig, eftersom den ligger nära Piazza San Marco.
Located in the Castello neighborhood of Venice, just off the waterfront to the southeast of Piazza San Marco, San Zaccaria is easily accessible by foot from central Venice. Take a water taxi to vaporetto stop San Zaccaria.
San Zaccaria is open Monday - Saturday, 10am - 12pm, and Sunday, 4pm - 6pm. Late spring and early summer are the best times to visit Venice in terms of weather, though crowds may be quite intense. And the prices are high. Avoid throngs of tourists while still enjoying lovely temperatures by visiting the city early spring or early to mid autumn.
Of the three chapels, the Cappella di San Tarasio is especially noteworthy with stunning late Gothic masterpieces—three golden polyptychs by Antonio Vivarini—as well as frescoes by Andrea del Castagno and Francesco da Faenza—the earliest examples of Renaissance painting in all of Venice. In the crypt are the funeral bodies of Venice’s doges from the 9th century, buried between columns and under vaulted ceilings, a vision enhanced by persistent flooding that creates a reflective pool.
