Treviso - San Nicolò

In Via San Nicolò, at the southwest corner of the old town, the Dominican church of San Nicolò, a spacious Gothic church built in brick (13th-14th century), has round piers and an unusual vaulted timber roof (restored). In the interior are a "Madonna Enthroned" by Fra Marco Pensaben and Savoldo (1521; on the high altar) and the tomb of Senator Agostino Oningo (d. 1490) by Pietro and Tullio Lombardi. In the chapterhouse of the former Dominican monastery are frescoes by Tommaso da Modena (1352).
