Erected on the site of the early Christian baptistry of San Giovanni Rotondo, it was built in 1626 by the Fathers of the Congregazione dell’Oratorio and was completed in 1648 with the construction of the cupola. The design by Paolo Maruscelli is inspired by Roman counter-reformation architecture. The Vignola-style façade in travertine is truly majestic. Inside are frescoes by Carlone and by Appiani. At high altar level, an Immaculate Conception by Pietro da Cortona (1662).
