Already existing in the 9th century during the feud of Ugo di Maginfredo, the presence of the parish church is attested in a historical document of 1044, which mentions the important cultural and religious nucleus of Quarantoli, like the abbey of Nonantola.
[3] In 1915, numerous works were carried out to enhance the Romanesque origins, which also doubled the length of the naves, to which a presbytery surrounded by an ambulatory was added.
[4] The original structure of the Romanesque building, with a basilica plan, consists of aisles ending in three apses that are divided into five bays of segmental arches resting on bilobed pillars.
On the left side of the presbytery there is a loggia rebuilt in recent times by reusing columns and capitals originally used in an ancient cloister that no longer exists.
The altar is made of a pair of elegant late-Romanesque pillars of the Modena school, one surmounted by a sculpted cubic capital with sloping foliage and the other sculpted in a bundle of knotted columns with a volute capital, supporting the mensa.
