The Santa Maria della Salute Basilica (Basilica of Saint Mary of Health), commonly called La Salute, is a Catholic church in Venice. It is situated at a strategic point for Venice's water traffic and is known as one of the city's most iconic architectural landmarks.
The construction of the basilica was initiated by the Venetian government in 1631 and was dedicated to the Virgin Mary to thank her for the end of the devastating plague epidemic that afflicted the city. Although several architects submitted proposals for the design, the plan by Baldassare Longhena was ultimately chosen. His design resulted in a beautiful church featuring the distinctive dome that is characteristic of Venice, and it continues to be celebrated today for its beauty and architectural significance.

ヴェネツィアはイタリア共和国(きょうわこく)北東部(ほくとうぶ)にある都市(とし)で、「アドリア海(かい)の女王(じょおう)」「水(みず)の都(みやこ)」と呼(よ)ばれ、その美(うつく)しさを称(たた)えられています。市街(しがい)はヴェネツィア湾(わん)の潟上(かたがみ)に築(きず)かれ、カナル・グランデと呼(よ)ばれる大(だい)運河(うんが)が市街(しがい)を2つに分(わ)けて湾曲(わんきょく)して流(なが)れ、他(ほか)にも狭(せま)い運河(うんが)が縦横(じゅうおう)に走(はし)っています。車(くるま)は入(い)れず、歩行者(ほこうしゃ)専用(せんよう)の狭(せま)い路地(ろじ)や橋(はし)が迷路(めいろ)のように広(ひろ)がっています。かつての主(おも)な交通(こうつう)手段(しゅだん)だった手漕(てこ)ぎのゴンドラは、現在(げんざい)では観光(かんこう)に用(もち)いられています。Venice is a city located in the northeastern part of the Italian Republic, celebrated for its beauty and known as the "Queen of the Adriatic" and the "City of Water." The city is built on the lagoon of the Gulf of Venice, with the Grand Canal (Canal Grande) curving through and dividing the city into two parts, and numerous narrow canals running crosswise. Cars cannot enter, and a labyrinth of narrow, pedestrian-only alleys and bridges spreads out. Gondolas, once the main mode of transportation, are now primarily used for tourism.
