Chioggia, an island that was once under Venetian rule, is beautiful despite the potential – in my humble opinion – for its appearance to be improved.

A town that preserves intact the traits of its maritime tradition, with its canals crossed by numerous bridges and the characteristic courtyards that open onto the waterways, offering evocative views. The brightly colored houses along the Vena Canal are one of Chioggia's most distinctive features, making it resemble a miniature of the lagoon capital, but with a livelier and more intimate feel.

Parish of Sant'Andrea Apostolo, Chioggia Church of Sant'Andrea Apostolo The Church of Sant'Andrea was reconstructed in the first half of the 18th century on the site of an earlier Romanesque medieval church. Its current façade is in the Baroque style, but it retains the original three-aisled layout. Inside, one can admire works such as: - the frescoes of the nave, dome, and central aisle by Giuseppe Cherubini (1912 and 1927); - the baptismal font, a marble altar formerly attributed to Sansovino but now attributed to the workshop of Lombardo or Lorenzo Bregno (late 15th century), on the left; - Saint Anne with the Virgin (c. 1770) by Antonio Marinetti; - Saints Vito, Modesto, Marco, Crescenzia, and Giuliana (1585) by Palma il Giovane; The Crucifixion (1523), attributed to Palma il Vecchio. Next to the Church of Sant'Andrea rises the 10th-century Romanesque bell tower. This defensive tower, converted into a bell tower, is also called the Clock Tower because it houses the oldest still-functioning tower clock in the world.

Basilica of San Giacomo, Chioggia The Church of San Giacomo was built in 1740 according to the design of the Venetian Pietro Pelle and completed by his nephew Domenico Pelle. The present church, with a single nave, was built on the site of an earlier Romanesque church with three naves supported by low brick columns that had been demolished by decay. It was consecrated in 1790 and became a Basilicata in 1806 after the relic of the Madonna della Navicella was placed within its walls. The church houses numerous works of art. Between 1989 and 1992, it housed the relics of the patron saints Felice and Fortunato and was the site of numerous religious ceremonies during the restoration of the cathedral.

Church of San Martino Vescovo, Chioggia Church of San Martino The Church of San Martino (1393) is one of the city's most distinctive and valuable buildings, though its interior can only be visited when exhibitions are on display. It was built by the inhabitants of Sottomarina, who sought refuge in Chioggia after the destruction of their village by the Genoese in 1379.

Chioggia Cathedral The bishop's see, which had been located in Malamocco since 1100 after massive coastal erosion and a tsunami rendered the area uninhabitable, was moved to Chioggia. Next to the ancient Porta di Santa Maria, the first cathedral in the Clodiense region was built. Dedicated to the Nativity of the Virgin Mary, it was, according to some legends, erected on the foundations of an old pagan temple dedicated to the goddess Concordia. With the establishment of the bishop's see, in 1264, by order of Bishop Enrico Grancarolo and with the approval of the Doge, the relics of Saints Felice and Fortunato were transferred to this new cathedral, and an altar was dedicated to them. The church remained undamaged even after the Chioggia War and, during that same war, served as a deposit for goods and booty divided among the victors. The building was destroyed by fire at Christmas 1623; only the saints' relics and a few other objects were saved. On the north side of the cathedral, four high reliefs remain, which certainly belong to the medieval church: two made of Istrian stone: the first depicts a warrior martyr saint (S. Felice or S. Fortunato), the second a Madonna and Child, set in a trefoil niche dating from the mid-14th century. Two more from the same period, made of Greek marble and set in a smooth, profiled frame, depict the Virgin of the Annunciation and the Archangel Gabriel.

Porta Santa Maria, Chioggia / Porta Garibaldi or Porta S. Maria This is a city wall that closed off access to the two canals and marked the southern entrance to the city. The Porta di Santa Maria Assunta (also called Porta Garibaldi) is a former city gate of the Italian city of Chioggia. It is located in the immediate vicinity of the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta. The now freestanding gate was built in 1520, was part of Chioggia's old city fortifications, and has been structurally altered several times throughout its history. On the landward side, a marble relief depicts the Lion of Saint Mark, the heraldic animal of Venice, symbolizing Venetian rule over the city. Until recently, the gate was red, but it is now yellow. Traffic now flows around the gate; inside the gate is a Latin inscription commemorating a visit by Pope Pius VI to Chioggia, as well as a decorative plaque bearing a coat of arms.

Vigo Column, Piazzetta Vigo, Chioggia Vigo Column The Vigo Column, located in the square of the same name, is one of the most representative architectural elements of the city of Chioggia. Its location dates back to 1786, at the behest of Podestà Giulio Antonio Mussato. It was created from the collection of artifacts found during excavations in 1763 at the site of the former Praetorian Palace.
