Moreover, findings of nearby Lombard sepulchres indicates that the church was once an early Christian site.

The church occupies a prominent position in Piazza Mino, near the Fiesole Cathedral.

Also in the transept is a glazed terracotta from Andrea della Robbia's workshop depicting the Crucifix between the Madonna, St. John, Mary Magdalene and Angels.

There is, additionally, a large, painted, wooden crucifix designed in the Giotto school from the 14th-century, which is attributed to Bonaccorso di Cino.
