Built between 1256 and 1262 in local sandstone, it preserves a cycle of important frescoes depicting the history of the Templars, as well as other frescoes portraying events connected to the Flagellants, a religious order founded by Ranieri di Fasano and present throughout Italy in 1260.
The church is built in the Romanesque style, like the churches of Monteluce and Montelabate, which were built in the same period. The ceiling was originally trussed before the huge cross vaults were added in 1400.
