History
It was founded in the 10th century. The façade was restored in 1659 by the patrician Gaspare Moro. It is decorated by allegoric statues, including a bust of Moro, all work by Clemente Molli. On the right is a 13th-century bas-relief depicting the Madonna with Child.
The church was in dismaying condition in the 19th century, and was restored until 1864. It is adjacent to the Scuola vecchia della Misericordia.
