History edit

Construction on the church has taken place in three phases, the first in 1425. Reconstruction has taken place in 1645 and again recently to repair earthquake damage.[1]

San Giovanni Evangelista was historically decorated by a series of frescoes, depicting both biblical and classical themes. Some art from San Giovanni has been removed for display at international museums or scholarly research.[2]
