    One of the most ancient churches in Castellaneta, it was founded with the name of Out Lady of Mercy in 1523.

    In 1542, the congregation of Santa Maria della Misericordia was established in the church. Its members, in addition to taking care of the building, had to run a hospital near the Porta Grande, the Main city gate.

    When the convent of the Capuchin Poor Clares was founded in 1647, the church was granted to the nuns.
