The church San Maurizio now houses the Museo della Musica, museum of baroque instruments, composers, and music of Venice. The story of the golden age of making string instruments in 18th century Venice and its studios or “schools” of Italian making of musical instruments, the differences in design and construction, the way they were made and the evolution of musical style. With this beautiful building, Venice has been given a valuable space in an interesting place to show off its artistic musical splendor. This church of San Maurizio was built in a Neoclassical-style, and Family Candian (known as Sanudo) is responsible for the construction of the church of San Maurizio and Lazzaro. Deconsecrated church is located in the campo San Maurizio in the sestiere of San Marco. Her history is as interesting as everything in Venice. In the middle of the 15th century, the ancient bell tower was demolished to allow the construction of the grand Palazzo Bellavite, whose façade was painted as a fresco by Paolo Veronese. Dionisio Bellavite, a wealthy merchant, actually received a concession for the area and permission to remove the bell tower in exchange for paying an annual tax in favor of the church of San Maurizio, a tax that Bellavite continued to pay until 1564. In 1806 the church was partly demolished and then rebuilt according to the design of Antonio Dieda and the architect of La Fenice, Gian Antonio Selva. The Museo della Musica is an exhibit dedicated to one of the artistic expressions that has contributed to the greatness of Italian culture, the making of stringed instruments. It features period instruments, and documents, including exhibits on Antonio Vivaldi, but also documents on Amati, Giovanni Battista Guadagnini, and Francesco and Matteo Goffriller. Valuable exhibits are Bass by Niccolò Amati and Bass by Carlo Bergonzi...

Rude receptionist omg! It was the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. I was there today with seven of my friends, Oct 9, 2022 around 15:00 to 16:00 earlier today. As we were entering the front door to the museum I was recording us walking-in, and she told me to stop because we’re not allowed to do it until we bought our tickets first. So I apologized sincerely because I didn’t know.

It was an honest mistake because there was no sign at the door to let people know it’s not allowed to do that anyway. I then proceed to ask what time they open and close on weekends just to kind of break the awkwardness when she stopped me. And she replied, “well we are open now. You’re inside right? I don’t understand your question” and she told me that with a mean voice tone and a pale face because for some reason, my question got her mad.

I was so shocked and it made us feel terrible, but since we know better than her unpleasant attitude and her worst customer service, we just decided to leave even before we started buying tickets.

I love music. I adore it and that is why we came here. But this lady who was at the reception around 15:00 to 16:00 today ruined it for me and my friends.

WORST experience ever! She acted like the people who raised her, didn’t...

Alla famiglia Candian (detta Sanudo) viene dato il merito della costruzione della Chiesa di San Maurizio e Lazzaro.

In origine la facciata era rivolta al rio del Santissimo e aveva un sagrato ai piedi del ponte che ancora oggi conduce al campo di Santo Stefano. Il campanile sorgeva in angolo tra il campo e la calle.

La chiesa volgeva il fianco destro sul vasto campo dal perimetro perfettamente regolare.

Dal IX secolo fino alla fine del Cinquecento le cronache non danno più alcuna notizia della Chiesa di San Maurizio con riferimento alla struttura architettonica, ma è certo che subì una riedificazione, in seguito ad un incendio che ne aveva distrutto le strutture edilizie, che si concluse nel 1105.

Alla fine del Quattrocento la chiesa presentava ancora struttura basilicale a tre navate di chiara impronta bizantina, risultato di un intervento operato nella prima metà del XII secolo.

In epoca gotica furono realizzati sicuramente altri lavori di restauro e di ristrutturazione. Dopo tanti secoli di silenzio le carte riportano la notizia che nel 1580 la Chiesa di San Maurizio fu completamente ricostruita e consacrata.

Si può supporre che in questa occasione, secondo le nuove teorie architettoniche legate alla funzione degli spazi, la nuova fabbrica abbia subito un’intera rotazione in modo da far corrispondere la fronte principale al campo.

Ricordiamo che in precedenza, cioè verso la metà del secolo, era stato demolito l’antico campanile per consentire la costruzione del grandioso Palazzo Bellavite, la cui facciata su campo sembra essere stata affrescata da Paolo Veronese.

Dionisio Bellavite, ricco mercante, aveva infatti ottenuto la concessione dell’area e il permesso di togliere il campanile in cambio del pagamento di una tassa annuale a beneficio della Chiesa di San Maurizio, tassa che il Bellavite continuava ancora a pagare nel 1564.

Della chiesa, eretta nel 1590, non abbiamo altra notizia, né elementi superstiti poiché nel 1806 essa venne demolita e riedificata secondo il progetto di Antonio Diedo e Giovan Antonio Selva.

L’attuale fabbrica, consacrata nel 1828, ha pianta a croce greca con cupola centrale e cupolette emisferiche cieche ai lati. Il disegno generale sembra ispirarsi alla sansoviniana Chiesa di San Geminiano.

In aderenza al fianco sinistro della chiesa sorse l’edificio della scuola degli Albanesi. Della scuola si ha notizia fin dal 1489 e ancora nel 1501 e nel 1502, anni durante i quali si stavano portando a termine la decorazione interna dei soffitti e gli arredi. Nel 1531 un nuovo intervento completava la facciata su calle del Piovan, che ancora oggi si può vedere, ornata da eleganti e ben lavorati bassorilievi di chiara fattura...

Beautiful little museum. It has several unique instruments, plus some historical treasures like manuscripts of famous composers. If you’re a musician or music teacher, or enjoy music in general, you should definitely pay a visit. The only thing I didn’t like was the fact that the labels didn’t have any information about the instruments, so people unfamiliar with the period wouldn’t understand what they were seeing (for example a viola d’ amore would look like a weird violin to the untrained eye). Still, a great experience.

This is such a unique setting to admire beautifully displayed musical instruments. Three cellos stand majestically before the lifelike sculptures of the high altar, complemented by paintings from the school of Veronese. There are also some rare and unusual instruments, such as a guitar-lyre from 1815, crafted in the city of Vicenza. You can also see the steps involved in crafting a violin and learn more about the life of Antonio Vivaldi. The entrance is free of charge.
