It has a simple sloping front with a portal with triangular tympanum and a small domical bell tower. The single-nave inside is decorated with 16 square canvas with episodes of Saint Catherine from Siena’s life, a rare cycle of great iconographic importance.

Inside the canvas, there are precious wooden tabernacles, cut and gilded with painted doors.
