Chiesa di San Benedetto

Via Roma,118 , Scorzè (VE) - 30037

Outside, three statues attributed to Antonio Bonazza stand out on the tympanum, depicting Saint Benedict, Saint Lucia, and Saint Agnes. On the pillars of the forecourt in front of the church, there are nine statues of saints attributed to the Paduan sculptor Francesco Androsi. 

On the main altar, there is a painting by Paolo Pino, Saint Benedict with Saints Nicholas and Lawrence, and the imposing tabernacle by Giuseppe Bernardi, known as il Torretto di Pagnano, a master of Canova, who also created the two angels surrounding the ciborium. All of this is topped by the magnificent baldachin by the Dalla Vecchia brothers.

The bell tower, which is 50 meters tall, dates back to the 16th century. Raised in 1767, it was completely restored in 1876, replacing the bell chamber, which currently holds four bells in B2. In the last restoration in 1990, a fresco was discovered above the entrance door depicting a Madonna with Child, which had been hidden by the sundial of 1729.
