History

The parish church is located in Piazza Pietro Panfili. In the early 1700s, this church replaced an earlier structure dedicated to Santa Cecilia. The present church has a single nave with three side chapels. The apse was frescoed in the 19th century by Andrea Galeotti, replicating a design from a church in the neighborhood of Tenaglie (town of Montecchio). Among the canvases in the church is the main altarpiece depicting a Last Supper by a follower of Livio Agresti.[1]
