Along the north side of Venice, bordering the lagoon, there is a 1-kilometre quay called Fondamente Nove. The church of Santa Maria Assunta (Assumption of the Virgin Mary) is located in the north-east of the Sestiere Cannaregio on the Salizzada dei Specchieri. The church is also very easy to reach from the Fondamente Nove. The Jesuit church of Santa Maria Assunta (...another church with this name exists on the island of Torcello) was built between 1715 and 1729 on the site of the church of S. Maria dei Crociferi (Bearers of the Cross), founded around 1150.
