[edit]

The church was first documented from a reconstruction in the 17th century.[1] The church is notable for a portico of tuscan columns. In the lateral altars are a Virgin and Child with Saints Guido and Antony of Padua and a Madonna and Child with young St John the Baptist and St Joseph, from the 17th century. To the left of the entrance is a 16th-century relief of Madonna and child.[2]
