History

The following is any history we have regarding the bridge's origins:

to S. James dall'Orio. A law of 1368 prescribed that every year, for a given time, you were to do in Venice the anatomy of corpses. We find that this operation eseguivasi first in different places, that is, in the church of S. Paterniano, in the hospitable of SS. Peter and Paul, in the convent of the Carmelites, in that of St. Stephen, what in the Frari, the Scuola di S. Theodore, or in some other private place.\nAround 1480 the doctor Alessandro Benedetti proposed the erection of an anatomical theater, but his project could only be carried out following two centuries, pel legacy of three thousand ducats of the patrician Lorenzo Loredan. The anatomical theater, therefore, with an adjacent school, s'aperse the day February 11, 1671 at the club which is placed in \Field of S. James dall'Orio \to N. A. 1507, and after the middle of the past century was restored and reopened. Then burned the night of 8 January 1800, shrank again, but in the simplest fashion, and served for some years to cadaveric sections. Currently they are at the Civic Hospitable, and the School of Anatomy is concentrated in the University of Padua.\nThe roads indicated, as well as \Anatomy\ are called \Ferenzuola,\ corruption of Firenzuola, or Fiorenzuola, family name cittadinesca. In one of the \Mariegole 'belonging to the Scuola Grande di S. Which are ascribed to John the Evangelist brother in 1473 a \Cristofolo Fiorenzuola officer to the Consuls' by S. James dall'Orio. And even in the beginning of the sixteenth century this family continued to have stable in that parish.
