: I'm trying to learn the location, and possibly the name of the building that was used for the library in Venice in "Last Crusade." My family will be visiting Venice and it would be great to see it, if it's really there. Anyone know if the interior and exterior are really the same building? I've heard the exterior was shot somewhere near St. Mark's Square. Are there any more clues or details out there? Much obliged for any leads...

I was there in 1996. I believe the name of the piazza/church was St. Barnaba. There was even a cafe there, like in Last Crusade. I think it was also used for an old Katherine Hepburn movie, too. I'll try and dig up an old map and some directions for you. Anyway, here's a picture I took. It definitely was a fun little adventure to go looking for the place!

Cheers,
Abner
