...Built in the second half of the ‘700 by Antonio Ossutio, designed by Andrea Vici and has an internal plan with a unique octagonal shape. The apse in the area occupied by the altar preserves the Coronation of the Virgin St. Trinity with S. Giovanni Evangelista and S. Agata, one of the masterpieces by Claudio Ridolfi il Veronese. The painting dates back to 1614 and the work is part of the spread of the cult of the Virgin of the Rosary which is attributed to the positive outcome of the battle against the Turks in the naval battle in 1571 near Lepanto.
