It was built during the first half of the XIII century on top of a previous hexagonal construction . It presents evidence of transition from the Romanesque to the Gothic style, especially on the facade. The beautiful portal is strongly splayed , with small bundled pillars surmounted by vegetable capitals and in the inner surface by a cord splay. The interior was restored in a neo classical style in 1817, following Luigi De Vegni ‘s project. Inside there’s an Etruscan urn, used again in 1503 to preserve the ashes of Beato Paolo Salimbeni. In the chapel, on the left, there’s a XVI century “Presepio” (Nativity); in the presbytery, a “Cruxifiction” dated 1300 and a wooden sculpture with “Christ Dead” by Giuseppe Paleari (1783).
