The church has a trussed ceiling with wooden beams and ends with a semi-circular apse. Outside you can see the different types of construction used on the building, deducing that its oldest part is that close to the apse.

The church is mentioned in an Act from 1191, and prospered until the beginning of the 15th century. As in similar circumstances, the Comune of Gubbio took measures to protect the abbey and ensure the safety of the monks, erecting a fortified tower or fortilitium, which housed a small military garrison. We have documentation about it from the 14th to the 15th centuries.
