Rural church with a rectangular plan and a single nave, with a characteristic barrel vault and a gabled roof with a chianche roof. On the entrance architrave there is a commemorative inscription and above it there is a circular window. The church is in a fairly good state of conservation. It was founded in 1697 by the priest Don Vito Venturiero who endowed it with an annual income of eleven ducats and forty-eight grains. There is a dedicatory plaque that reads as follows: "Angele Sancte Dei Parvum / hoc tibi pono sacellum / Accipe et accepti / Muneris esto memor". Professor Dionisio Altamura translates as follows: "O Holy Angel of God, I will raise this little chapel to you, please accept it and always remember the gift you have received from me". The scholar comments that the inscription is based on a typical precept of pagan morality, when the pious settlers believed they had the right to the benevolence of the gods, only because they had offered sacrifices and had fulfilled religious practices.
