In Indian Jones and the Last Crusade they go to a church in Venice Italy. In real life where is it in Venice?

Question

I was going to be in the area and thought it would be a fun place to check out. Does anyone one if its actually located in Venice, and if so then exactly where in Venice it might be?

As a refresher it is the converted church/library that they go to in search of the second tablet. Also, any ideas on if it is actually open to the public?

Answer 1

More than likely and I.L.M. backlot. Nobody's going to let you wreck the historical masonry.

Answer 2

The exterior of the church was San Barnaba di Venezia in Venice italy.  The interior was a studio at Universal.

The church has several of Boticelli's murals, and is a sight to see.  Locals call it Chiesa di San Stae.
