Nestled close to the Grand Canal, Campo San Bartolomeo serves as a gateway to the east side of the Rialto Bridge. Named in honor of Saint Bartholomew, one of the 12 Apostles, this historic square is home to a church also dedicated to the saint. A prominent feature is the bronze statue of Carlo Goldoni, an 18th-century Venetian comic playwright, which stands as a testament to the city’s rich cultural heritage. Visitors can explore the square, admire the architecture, and soak in the vibrant atmosphere that has been a part of Venice for centuries.
