There was a church on site that was built in the 9th century but was destroyed by fire in 1105. Rebuilt in 1350, it was rebuilt again in its present form in 1776 under the patronage of Marcantonio Grimani using projects by Lorenzo Boschetti. The belfry is of the eleventh century, separated from the main body of the church, has a tower in the shape of a pine cone from the 1300s. To the left of the church was the entrance to the Casino dei Nobili (Casino of the Aristocracy), which was an active gambling house in the eighteenth century. The church is now deconsecrated and used for exhibitions.



A scene from the 1989 Indiana Jones movie and The Last Crusade was filmed in front of the church, with the facade of the church as an imaginary library.
