The original parish church was erected in 1856 using designs by Filippo Morolli, but it was destroyed during World War II. The reconstruction, while modeled on the prior church, is a modern reinterpretation, completed in 1950, by the architect Luigi Campanini. Many of the prior artworks were destroyed, including a canvas by Francesco Brici depicting San Gaudenzo. The church now houses a canvas by Angelo Sarzetti, originally in a Convent of Rimini. The portal has a sculptural group depicting San Gaudenzo blessing by Elio Morri (1913-1992).[1]
