Located about five kilometers from the inhabited center, in the open countryside, it was originally a small church founded by the Basilian monks in an area without any cultivation which explains the nickname "to the scrub". For over half a century it has represented the ideal religious center of the whole Salento.
Over the centuries, the church has been enlarged and today, at the top of the facade, it has a large statue of Christ the Redeemer. Outside, in addition to a rich portico, an outdoor church was created for the celebrations of the summer and spring period.
