Since its origin , before the year one thousand , Rialto has been the economic heart of Venice . During the Serenissima Replublic , it was here in the market that real Venetian retail and wholesale trade took place. Over time,the Market became more important as a result of new warehouses, but above all due to the creation of the credit institutes know as ' Banchi' where money changing and loans operations were carried out.
In this context of great economic vitality and wealth , there was The Erbaria, the vegetable market mainly fed by the garden of the lagoon islands, The Pescaria , the fisch market, where the fresch fish arrived from the lagoon and along the coast, The Casaria , the cheese market and the Naranzaria ,the citrus fruits market.
Many of Rialto's buildings were destroyed by a great fire in 1514 and the reconstructed ; the only which was saved by the fire is the xi century Church of Saint Giacomo .
Today , Rialto is still a lively and crowded shopping place where, in the morning from Monday to Saturday the fruit and vegetable market and the food market take place and , from Tuesday to Saturday the fish, is held.
