Previously the seat of a brotherhood and today of the Misericordia, it was completely rebuilt after the great flood of 1885. Two paintings were saved from that terrible flood and are now placed in the new church on the counter-façade: the first is an Annunciation painted between 1639 and 1640 by Filippo Martelli, a painter from Seravezzo, also author of minor works such as the gilding of wooden furnishings and the arrangement of frontals, canopies and processional bands. The other canvas, of very different quality, is the work of Pietro da Cortona’s workshop and depicts the Marys at the Sepulchre; it is not the result of a local commission, but arrived in Seravezza as a gift from Prince Ferdinando, who often stayed at the nearby Palazzo Mediceo.
