The Franciscans (Frari) church is one of the most important religious compounds of Venice. The current building, a perfect example of Venetian Gothic architecture, was started from 1340 and the work continued for over one century until its consecration in 1492. The interior, almost 100m long, is dominated by the extraordinary choir of friars featuring wooden stalls by Marco Cozzi (1468) and a marble enclosure by Lombardo (1475) still in its original position.
