San Zulian, also called Chiesa di San Giuliano, is a Renaissance church on the Mercerie, the main shopping street of Venice, Italy, in the parish of San Salvador. Originally built in the 9th century, it was reconstructed several times. Its flattened classical temple façade, begun by Jacopo Sansovino in 1553–1554 and completed after his death in 1570 by Alessandro Vittoria, was paid for by the scholar Tommaso Rangone, whose bronze seated portrait sits above the door. The interior, also by Sansovino, was consecrated in 1580.
