This is a very old church which was rebuilt by the Franciscans in 1575. In 1698 a gunpowder explosion seriously damaged the building which was rebuilt by Ramo who also added a dome and painted a fresco over 40 years from 1703 to 1743. In 1876 it underwent another restoration by Ceppi. On the walls are frescoes by Reffo, Parachini and Fava.
