More about San Servolo Island
The island of San Servolo, immersed in the lagoon between San Giorgio and the Lido, houses in its rectangle of land a vast architectural complex and a beautiful park. Upon landing, you are immediately dominated by the giant spherical sculpture by Arnaldo Pomodoro, but in just a few steps everything disappears and you find yourself immersed in greenery, lost in silence and enchanted by the view of the lagoon and the care of the vegetation.
San Servolo is often selected to be used as an exhibition space and special events, such as the recurring More Festival, a great festival organized by France. The more experimental wing of the Academy of Fine Arts is also housed insidededicated to new technologies. A beautiful evolution for a place that has historically undergone a multitude of functions: from a spiritual refuge for Benedictine monks at the end of the 9th century, evidenced by the construction of a small church, up to a psychiatric hospital (if you can call it that in the 1700s), the main up to the law of Franco Basiglia to whose name the Foundation based in San Servolo is dedicated.
