The villa is mentioned in the bolla di Urbano III del 1186 granted to the bishop of Concordia Gionata and is already considered as a distinct entity from the villa of Cordovado.

The small church was built in the seventeenth century, then modified in the 18th and 19th centuries and was restored in the 20th century (1970s). The stone altar dates back to 1741, with a contemporary altarpiece depicting a Madonna with child and SS. Floriano, Eurosia, Gregorio and Luigi Gonzaga by a Venetian painter, imitator of Sebastiano Ricci. 

Also interesting is the canvas of the Ultima cena attributed to Giuseppe Buzzi, the work was restored in 1976 by G.C. Magri. On the right wall, there is a fresco of Madonna with child and SS. Giovanni e Paolo (1660), detached from a private residence (Saccudello?).

The building was acquired by the villagers after various changes of ownership: Zoppi 1726, Rota 1765, Marzin 1821, Fadelli 1899, Aliprandi 1905.

The facade is smooth with a single door opening and a single bell opening at the top of the gabled roof. There is a single room, a rectangular hall with a flat ceiling without a presbytery; the altar is located on the back wall of the hall and has two doors on the sides leading to the sacristy. The latter has an "L" shape, continuing along the right side of the hall up to a door; the space is connected to the hall through a window to the right of the altar.
