About San Giorgio and the Giudecca

Take the waterbus from San Zaccaria to San Giorgio Maggiore for the church and the Fondazione Cini, then continue to the Giudecca and walk west along the waterfront past Palladio’s Redentore to the Molino Stucky, with the whole of Venice across the canal.

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with San Giorgio and the Giudecca before you go.
