This church is small, with one nave, but large in rich content.
Among the preserved treasures, the majolica brick floor of the 18th century, attributed to Nicolò Sarzana: an exhibition of vaults, emblems, angels, garlands, enclosing a sailing ship among the waves.
Founded in 1615 by the Benedictine nuns and a convent for some time, it preserves a jewel of rare and spectacular beauty, and so much power in the wooden tribune and in the main altar covered with pure gold.
