S. Bonaventura

The small church (chiesetta) of San Bonaventura, which is located in the sestier di Canaregio, was built in 1620 for a branch of the Franciscans. The church was part of a monastic complex, which was suppressed by Napoleon in 1810. The church was closed and the monastery was destroyed. In 1859 the church became part of a convent, which in turn was converted into a children's hospital. 
San Bonaventura has been emptied of all its fixtures and fittings.
