ABOUT MIRA PORTE

It is thought that the name Mira derives from the Latin word "mira" which means "panoramic viewpoint". The area is characterized by pleasant river landscapes, where the Venetian patricians built their holiday houses in XVII – XVIII century which they reached by going upstream.
The Church of Mira, on the left bank, shows typical neo-gothic features. An old church was pulled down in Mira at the beginning of XIV century. In 1487 the building of the new church was authorized and the construction began the following year on a plan by the builder Elio da Como and the carpenter Alegreto da Padova. The present building preserves a lot of structures of the XV century church. Inside there is a St. Antonio with baby Jesus by Gregorio Lazzarini. The presbytery frescos, perhaps by Elisabeth Lazzarini’s daughter, are often instead attributed to the master himself. Finally, a Deposition and a Crucifixion, inspired by Piazzetta.
