This votive church stands in the centre of an area known as Quartiere since the times it used to house a military garrison.
Its hexagonal plan with rectangular chapels was designed in 17th century by G.B. Aleotti and later modified by G.B. Magnani. A majestic dome frescoed by P.A.Bernabei between 1626 and 1629 is supported by arches and pillars.
In the interior are kept works by F.Scaramuzza, M.Baiardi, G.M.Conti, T.Bandini, F.Pescatori and G.Gaibazzi.
