Square · 20 min · the San Barnaba facade that plays the library in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade · free, in Dorsoduro

In Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Indiana Jones finds a clue to the Grail in Venice inside a library set up in a disused church. The film's library does not exist: what you see from outside is the facade of the church of San Barnaba, in the square of the same name, in Dorsoduro. The interiors were built in a studio, so there is nothing to recognise inside.
What you see today
An everyday Venetian square, with the classical facade of the church at the far end and a canal alongside. The facade is recognisable as soon as you enter the square. It is a short stop: twenty minutes, a photo and a coffee, and you carry on to the rest of Dorsoduro.
Getting there
It is between Ca' Rezzonico and Campo Santa Margherita, on foot from the Accademia. If you go by vaporetto along the Grand Canal, get off at Ca' Rezzonico and walk a few minutes inland.

## Consejos

### Combine it with Santa Margherita
The neighbourhood's big square is a couple of steps away and is where Dorsoduro people lunch and dine.

### Go in the morning
First thing you have the square almost empty for the photo.
