Great place to see art where it was originally planned. Fantastic ceiling. Not many come here but definitely worth a visit. One of the many art gems in Venice. See something else in Venice than the usual sights and appreciate the wonders of the world. This is why we should all be concerned about the fate of this city.

Amazing sight with some of Tintoretto's most important masterpieces. The extra 3€ for the audioguide are well worth the expense. The history of the Scuola is well explained, and one can choose a description of each painting.

The Scuola Grande di San Rocco is magnificent. It was my second time there, this time I was graduating after attending a graduation and matriculation there about a year earlier. Though it looks like any Venice building on the outside, the interior of this building is majestic. With large paintings and decorations on both the wall and ceiling making one’s eyes wander in the building. It’s a masterpiece that anyone who visits Venice must see but if it is closed, you will certainly miss its regal nature. They have managed to keep the interior refreshing for its guests and you must see it to appreciate it. I will recommend it to visitors of Venice, you won’t regret you did.

Another good reason to venture into the interior of Venice! This outdoor concert took place around August 10th or so at about 9:00pm between three buildings (Scuola Grande di San Rocco, Church of Saint Roch, and Leonardo da Vinci Museum). If you look close, you will see the red awning connects all three structures. The seating I assume was reserved, but passersby were able to walk up at the back to listen and take photos & video for free. Well worth the effort!!! [The desk clerk at my hotel seemed to think this was an annual celebration.]

The Tintoretto paintings are amazing! In just three rooms there is enough beauty to captivate for more than an hour. Take your time and definitely rent the audio guide to fully appreciate the thematic harmony of the placement of each painting. Note to all, google maps is so horrendously wrong about the location of this place. It’s more than a half mile off. I had to ask five people for directions before I finally found it.
