Built towards the end of the thirteenth century, perhaps on an unfinished construction of Swabian origin, its forms reflect Frederick's models. The building was inhabited until the beginning of the seventeenth century, while in the eighteenth century the rooms of the kitchens on the sides of the ogival portal were used as a prison (during the nineteenth century those on the left were used as a criminal prison and those on the right as a civil prison. they left numerous graffiti on the walls. A crenellated tower that was located in the southwest corner of the external enclosure, mentioned in 1611, was renovated around 1820 and was demolished for the construction of the palace of Giuseppe Cafisi in the 1840s, together with a large Gothic portal ("portal greater"); at the same time the large cistern in the center of the enclosure was covered with pavement. In the sixties of the twentieth century the enclosure was deprived of the western section, from the southern wall of the castle to the new post office (1963). Source: wikipedia

According to a tradition of the fourth decade of the eighteenth century until the mid-nineteenth century it was the mother church of the town. Little is known when it was built. The bishops of Agrigento during their pastoral visits of 1608, 1647 and 1677, in the city, never mentioned this church. It is therefore probable that the building dates back to the end of the seventeenth century and the subsequent completion at the beginning of the following century, followed by a restructuring dating back to around 1730. To confirm this intervention, outside the church, on the eastern wall, there are still some eighteenth-century plaster and a small frame, where the manufacturing date is still visible. The occluded windows are also of the eighteenth century and are still visible in the same wall today. It is known for sure that in 1733 the church was undergoing a refurbishment, with funds deriving from the proceeds of a leather tannery that the inhabitants had allocated to it. The church was renovated again in the time span from 1845 to 1853.
