A first religious building was at this location in 1422. The current church, in a baroque style with a pediment with curved forms, was built at the beginning of the 18th century and sheltered several baroque altarpieces. A double -volley staircase leads to the entrance porch. The interior is decorated with paintings imitating marble and trompe-l'oeil.
