It rises on a Etruscan necropolis and in the first decades of the Nineteenth century was radically changed while preserving the original system only the facade to blind arches. The interior, with three naves, is decorated by an impressive cycle of frescoes with scenes from the life of Christ made by the painter neoclassical Luigi Ademollo in 1837.
