Madonna dell'Orto
Continued from page 1

How to reach Madonna dell'Orto

Waterbus lines 41, 41, 51, and 52 stop at Madonna dell'Orto. The platform is one station beyond S. Alvise when coming from the Piazzale Roma and train station, and one station beyond Fondamenta Nuove when coming from Zaccaria and Arsenale. For more information, see the table in my Vaporetto routes article.

From the vaporetto platform, walk inland until you reach the Fondamenta Madonna dell'Orto. Turn left; the church is just along the canal.

Opening hours and fees

The Church of Madonna dell'Orto is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays. A single admission ticket costs €2,50. A cheaper alternative is the Chorus Pass, which lets you visit 15 of Venice's most important churches for only €8,00.

Walking tours and Web links

See the next page for two walking itineraries from the Madonna dell'Orto and links to other sites about the Cannaregio district, including maps.
