Treviso | Saint Vito and Saint Lucia’s church

Among the most ancient places of veneration of the city, it is attested the existence since 981, when a document speaks of a "St. Peter's Hospital and San Vito", a refuge for the sick, poor and pilgrims, including a chapel with the same name, close to the citizens forum, the current Piazza dei Signori, all placed under the ownership of the Abbey of St. Hilary. Over the centuries it was home to some religious schools of art such as blacksmiths, bombers, of caldereri, the wine bearers and butchers. Of this early church remains only an apse, the one that connects with the Church of Saint Lucia, in the current building almost entirely rebuilt in the sixteenth century, together with the palace of the Monte di Pietà and the church tower. completely restored, the building was reopened to the public in 2013.
