What makes Tour to the islands of San Servolo and San Lazzaro degli Armeni a unique experience ?
San Sèrvolo is an island in the Venetian lagoon. It is one of the islands closest to the historic center of Venice. San Servolo is one of the oldest monastic settlements in the lagoon. From 1715 the island was used as a military hospital and in 1725 the first mentally ill was hospitalized there. The government of Napoleon ordered, in 1797, that the insane of every wealth were hospitalized in San Servolo, which thus became an asylum and a secularly run military hospital.
San Lazzaro degli Armeni is a small island in the Venice lagoon, and is completely occupied by a monastery, the mother house of the Mekhitarist order. The island is one of the first centers of Armenian culture in the world.
