Open (Santa Croce degli Armeni) (Churches in Venice)

Open (Santa Croce degli Armeni)

Thanks so much to Bert for sending these photos and allowing me to post them here. Bert is the only person I know who has found the Armenian church open! He said that some restoration work was going on, and he was able to look around for a bit and take a couple of photos. He didn't know it at the time, but the memorial slab below is the same one that Jan Morris described in her book and that I quoted in my post on this church.

This week on Venice Daily Photo, Bert has been sharing some wonderful photos of Palazzo Barbaro. Check them out!

Hi Annie, these interior photos of the Armenian church from Bert are wonderful. I also enjoyed his photo series on the Palazzo Barbaro, especially the stairway.

Thank you for sharing these wonderful photos (thank you Bert).

Hi Kathy, I loved the stairway photo too! Bert is very good at finding off-the-beaten track parts of Venice and taking great photos of them. :)
