Towards the middle of the 14th century the building was rebuilt in Gothic style; towards the end of the 17th century until the middle of the eighteenth century the exterior and interior were completely renovated. Between 1769 and 1882 the new church was built with existing forms almost identical to the Church of the Redemptor of Venice, while the old one is sold to the Commune which converted it into parochial theater until its demolition in 1966. In 1890 the bell tower was demolished of Gothic style.
