In 1575 a near complete reconstruction occurred when the church was granted to the Company (Order) of Saint Roch (San Rocco). The architect Cosimo Pugliani added a new façade in 1630-1634. The Order of St. Rocco was suppressed in 1782 and the church soon fell under the care of the diocesis and another restoration occurred in 1899.
