San Michele in Isola is a Catholic church, located on the Isola di San Michele, a small islet sited between Venice and Murano, which once sheltered a Camaldolese monastery, but now houses the main cemetery of the city. The monastery was mostly demolished in the 19th century, but the church remains, originally rebuilt starting in 1469. The church is dedicated to Saint Michael, the holder of the scales on Judgement Day, a fit guardian of the sleep of the faithful dead. The island cemetery now includes the land of the formerly separate island of San Cristoforo. This church is sometimes referred to as San Michele di Murano, although this islet is separate from islands comprising that town.

Santa Maria del Pianto is a late-Baroque-style, Roman Catholic church in Venice, Italy. This dilapidated octagonal church in a forgotten corner of Venice was designed by Baldassare Longhena, and appears inspired by Longhena's Santa Maria della Salute on the Grand Canal, Venice.
A church and monastery were begun in 1647, after a Senate decree from 1646 as an ex voto for outcomes in the war against the Ottomans. The Servite nunnery, called the Cappuccine delle Fondamenta Nuove, and observing a cloistered Augustinian rule, was complete by 1658, and the church was consecrated in 1687 to St Mary of the Tearful and St Joseph. In 1810, the order was suppressed. The church abandoned was restored during 1842, and re-opened to worship.
