Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari

The Basilica di Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari, usually just called the Frari, is a church in Venice, northern Italy.One of the greatest churches in the city, it has the status of a minor basilica.It stands on the Campo dei Frari at the heart of the San Polo district.The church is dedicated to the Assumption (Italian Assunzione della Beata Virgine).The Franciscans were granted land to build a church in 1250, but the building was not completed until 1338.Work almost immediately began on its much larger replacement, the current church, which took over a century to build.The campanile, the second tallest in the city after that of San Marco, was completed in 1396.
