The Chiesa di San Polo is a Catholic church in Venice, dedicated to the Apostle Paul. It gives its name to the San Polo sestiere of the city. The current Gothic church dates from the 15th century, but a church has stood on the site since the 9th century and the south doorway, possibly by Bartolomeo Bon, survives from this church. The campanile, standing detached from the church, was built in 1362. The interior has a ship's keel roof and was restored in 1804 by Davide Rossi. On the left wall near the entrance is a ''Last Supper'' by Jacopo Tintoretto, while the first altarpiece on the left, is attributed to his studio. Other walls have canvases by Paolo Piazza (''St Silvester baptizes Emperor Constantine'' and ''St Paul Preaching''; by Jacopo Guarana (''Sacred Heart''). The altar of the absidal chapel on the left has a ''Marriage of the Virgin'' by Paolo Veronese. The presbytery has canvases by Palma il Giovane including ''St Peter and the Keys'', the ''St Paul at Tarsus'', and a ''Temptation of St Anthony Abbot''). Next to the altar are two bronze statues by Alessandro Vittoria:''St Paul'' and ''St Anthony Abbot''. Among the ceiling paintings are a ''Glory of Angels'' and ''Resurrection'' by Giandomenico Tiepolo. His father, Giambattista is thought to be the author of ''Virgin appears to St John Nepomuk'', commissioned by the King of Poland, August III.
