This is the most important church in this area. It was built to celebrate the sacerdotal Jubilee of Leone XIII. He committed Raffaele Ingami to build this church under the supervision of Antonio Brugidou. The construction started in 1891 and was inaugurated in 1898. The interior presents three interesting mosaics by Silvio Galimberti.
