Audio Guides 1 ,2 ,3 You get a splendid view of Venice and the Basilica di San Marco from the tallest bell tower in Venice. It can be seen from the laguna, and once you have reached the top, the whole laguna can be seen from above. Even though the tower was erected at the beginning of the 20th Century, it is an exact replica of the 15th-century bell tower. In 1609, Galileo Galilei exhibited his telescope here, and during the Carnevale, the bell tower used to serve as a stage for the tight rope-walkers who entertained the doge with their acrobatics.disabled access.
