Dating back to the year 1100. The Monastery was first inhabited by the Benedictines and then, from 1427 to 1867, by the Franciscans.

According to tradition, the monastery was founded in the early 11th century by the Norman Goffredo Siniscalco, son of Sindolfo. The construction of the Romanesque church is coeval with the monastery, as demonstrated by the Romanesque layout of the plant.

The monastery was entrusted to the Benedictine monks of the abbey of the Santissima Trinità di Cava de Tirreni, who remained there until 1427. The monks were tormented by continuous attacks by Saracen pirates, who destroyed the monastery walls several times. Also due to the threat of raids, the Benedictines abandoned it and the observant Franciscans took over, as sanctioned by a bull of Pope Martin V.
