Venezia - Dorsoduro

Dorsoduro è uno dei sestieri di Venezia. Il 12 dicembre 2007 contava 15.586 abitanti (di cui 4.763 alla Giudecca e 1.535 a Sacca Fisola). Il nome deriverebbe dal fatto che la zona era un tempo caratterizzata da un terreno stabile (dal dorso duro), meno paludoso che altrove. Viene delimitato a nord dai sestieri di Santa Croce e San Polo, dal Rio Ca' Foscari e dal Rio Malcanton; a est dal Canal Grande; a sud comprende il canale della Giudecca e l'omonima isola. È collegato al sestiere di San Marco tramite il Ponte dell'Accademia. La parte occidentale è rappresentata dall'isola Mendigola, che fu colonizzata secoli prima che Rialto, nell'828, divenisse il centro vitale di Venezia. Dove sorgeva quest'isola, venne poi costruita la meravigliosa chiesa di San Nicolò dei Mendicoli risalente all'XI secolo. Le isole vicine vennero colonizzate in seguito, fino a raggiungere la Punta della Dogana, che prende il nome dal fatto che qui si ergeva la Dogana di Venezia. L'ultima area bonificata fu la zona che si estende fra la Dogana da Mar e il monastero (in pratica, dove oggi sorge la Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute). Al di là del Canal Grande si può notare Piazza San Marco con il campanile della basilica, ma l'unico modo per raggiungerla è attraversare il Ponte dell'Accademia. Dopo San Marco, Dorsoduro è il sestiere con più musei importanti a Venezia. Grande importanza ha la Galleria dell'Accademia, istituita dal pittore Giambattista Piazzetta nel 1750, e trasferita in questi edifici da Napoleone nel 1807. Di grande rilievo anche la Collezione Peggy Guggenheim, a Palazzo Venier dei Leoni. Qui sorgono anche Ca' Rezzonico, museo del settecento veneziano, Ca' Dario, tristemente nota per la fine tragica dei suoi ultimi proprietari, e la Scuola Grande dei Carmini. Le chiese più importanti sono la Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, la chiesa di Santa Maria del Rosario detta I Gesuati e la chiesa di San Nicolò dei Mendicoli. Meritano una visita anche lo Squero di San Trovaso e Campo Santa Margherita, luogo di ritrovo per veneziani e studenti. Dorsoduro is one of the six sestieri of Venice. It includes the highest land areas of the city and also includes Giudecca island and Isola Sacca Fisola. Its name derives from the Italian for "hard ridge", due to its comparatively high, stable land. The original heart of the area was the Giudecca Canal, along which building were constructed from the sixth century. By the eleventh century, settlement had spread across to the Grand Canal, while later religious buildings including the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute and the Zattere quay are now its main landmarks. In the nineteenth century, the Accademia was set up in Dorsoduro, and the Ponte dell'Accademia linked it to San Marco, making it an expensive area popular with foreign residents, with its western end and the Giudecca becoming industrialised. Other attractions in the quarter on the main islands include the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the Palazzo Dario, San Trovaso, San Pantalon, San Nicolò da Tolentino, the Ospedale Giustinian, the Church of San Sebastiano, the Palazzo Ariani, the Palazzo Zenobio, the Church of Santa Maria del Carmelo and Scuola Grande dei Carmini, Campo Santa Margherita, Ca' Foscari, Ca' Rezzonico and Campo San Barnaba. http://valpardfilms.awardspace.com/
