In the last years of the 18th century, the city of Ragusa had a demographic development that led to an expansion of the town towards the northwest and the birth of new neighborhoods. It was therefore necessary to build new places of worship, therefore, in 1807, the Parish Priest of San Giovanni presented a request for the construction of two churches.
In 1808 the Curia of Syracuse authorized the construction of the Church of Ecce Homo to serve the "Ospedale" and "Carrubelli" neighborhoods. The Church, opened to the public in 1812, recognized as sacramental in 1818, was completed at the behest of Father Giovanni Boscarino, an active and dynamic guide, in 1842.
The architect, taking up the happy model experimented by Rosario Gagliardi for the facade of the Church of San Giorgio, superimposed a third order with the bell tower on the two orders of the traditional gabled facade (1855).
In 1857 the Serassi organ-building company of Bergamo created a pipe organ that still today represents a true and authentic jewel within the Church.
