History
Built at the end of the 12th century, the church was subject to the jurisdiction of the archbishop of Genoa. The building is connected to the neighbouring houses by supporting arches and has a western façade surmounted by a triangular pediment enlivened by blind arcading. It is extended by a loggia with six pilasters, connected by arches. The central nave is separated by two aisles. Three semi-circular apses form the chevet.
