San Giovanni di Malta, also known as San Giovanni del Tempio or San Giovanni dei Furlani, is a Roman Catholic church in the Castello sestiere of Venice, Italy, dedicated to John the Baptist. It is believed to have been established by the Knights Hospitaller sometime after 1187, although it is sometimes linked to the Knights Templar. The present building was constructed between 1498 and 1505, and it is located adjacent to a priory. The property was taken over by the state in 1806 and the church was closed in 1810, but in 1841 it was handed over to the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, who reopened the church in 1843.

San Lorenzo is a church building in the sestiere of Castello of Venice, northern Italy.
The church dates to the 9th century, and became attached to the neighboring Benedictine monastery. It was rebuilt in 1580–1616 to designs by Simone Sorela. The high altar was partially sculpted by Giovanni Maria da Cannaregio using designs by Girolamo Campagna. The latter sculptor completed the statues of Saints Lawrence and Sebastian. Marco Polo was buried there, per his request on his deathbed. His remains had been in the chapel of St. Sebastian, which was demolished in 1580. Since then there has been no information regarding the whereabouts of his remains, which are consequently missing.
Saint Paul I of Constantinople relics were brought to Venice in 1226. They are currently kept in San Lorenzo.
