The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
L'édifice, qui existait au 17e siècle, a été agrandi en 1766 selon les plans de Frediani de Penta di Casinca. Les décors intérieurs furent achevés en 1770. La façade comprend deux étages séparés par des corniches à pinacles, le tout surmonté d'un fronton semi-circulaire sur lequel sont apposées la tiare papale et les clés de Saint-Pierre. Au-dessus de la porte centrale, une niche surmontée d'un petit fronton à colonnes était destinée à recevoir la statue d'un saint. Des escaliers sur lesquels s'ouvrent trois portes donnent accès à trois nefs séparées par des pilastres, et comportant huit chapelles latérales. Le transept est séparé de la nef principale par une balustrade de marbre. Effondré en 1918, le clocher à quatre étages a été reconstruit en 1929.

History
The building, which existed in the 17th century, was enlarged in 1766 according to the plans of Frediani de Penta di Casinca. The interior decorations were completed in 1770. The façade comprises two storeys separated by cornices with pinnacles, the whole surmounted by a semi-circular pediment on which are affixed the papal tiara and the keys of Saint-Pierre. Above the central door, a niche surmounted by a small pediment with columns was intended to receive the statue of a saint. Staircases on which three doors open provide access to three naves separated by pilasters, and comprising eight side chapels. The transept is separated from the main nave by a marble balustrade. Collapsed in 1918, the four-storey bell tower was reconstructed in 1929.
