The Chiesa di San Polo is a Catholic church in Venice dedicated to the Apostle Paul. It gives its name to the San Polo sestiere of the city. The current Gothic church dates from the 15th century but a church has stood on the site since the 9th century and the south doorway possibly by Bartolomeo Bon survives from this church. The campanile standing detached from the church was built in 1362.The interior has a ship’s keel roof and was restored in 1804 by Davide Rossi.
