Designed by Father Barnabita Ambrogio Mazenta from Milan, it was finished at the beginning of the 17th Century. Small insets in the façade contain four statues. The first was sculpted by Ecole Fiche who designed the church's interior. The others below were designed by Conventi and Mirandola. Inside, with a single nave is the magnificent vault, embellished with lovely frescoes by Rollo and Guidi. Angelo Michele Colonna, il Guercin, Ludovico Carracci, il Mastelletta, Lippo di Dalmasio ar some of the other artists involved in the decoration of this holy religious place.
