This plaque is placed on the right side of the main door and it reads:

"Fatta erigere dai Gesuiti, a partire dal 1623, su disegno di Girolamo Rainaldi. Il maestoso interno, a navata unica, riprende lo schema della chiesa del Gesù di Roma, con ricca decorazione in stucco. La facciata è rimasta incompiuta così come la parte absidale e la cupola. L'attuale abside è di Vincenzo Vannini (1840). All'interno si conserva una Madonna col bambino dello scultore Giuseppe Mazza. La chiesa, restaurata nel 1988, è ora adibita ad Aula Magna dell'Università. "

"Built by the Jesuits, starting from 1623, designed by Girolamo Rainaldi. The majestic interior, with a nave, follows the pattern of the Church of the Gesu in Rome, with rich stucco decoration. The façade remained unfinished as well as the apse and dome. The present apse is by Vincenzo Vannini (1840). Inside there is a Madonna and Child by sculptor Giuseppe Mazza. The church was restored in 1988, is now used as the Aula Magna of the University."
