Campanile, Venice Overview

The Campanile di San Marco is the bell tower of St. Mark’s Basilica in Piazza San Marco, Venice. With its height of 99 metres, it is the tallest building in Venice. At such an elevation, you will get some of the most spectacular views of the city and the lagoon. A massive bronze bell is present at the top.

  Originally, this bell tower was built as a lighthouse. Over the years, it was converted into a campanile. It has been reconstructed many times due to damage caused by lightning strikes. The tower last collapsed in 1902. It took 10 years to rebuild; out of five bells, only the Marangoni survived the collapse and was again placed at the top of the building. The other four were remade and added shortly after. Tourists can reach the top of the tower via a lift.
