This church in Fossacesia, completed in 1876 as indicated on the tympanum, features a brick façade with a gabled profile. The façade is horizontally divided into two levels. The lower level includes the main portal topped by a stone tympanum, flanked by plaques commemorating renowned local abbots Pietro Pollidori and Domenico Romanelli. The red brick bell tower stands at the rear of the church and holds three bells.
Inside, the church consists of a single nave divided into three bays, marked by pilasters with diamond-shaped decorations supporting a barrel-vaulted ceiling with ribs. The choir loft rests on Doric marble columns. The main altar features three niches with statues: the Madonna and Child at the center, flanked by St. Anthony Abbot and St. Roch.
