Built at the behest of the Augustinian Fathers in the late eleventh century and the beginning of the twelfth century on a pre-existing Christian church, the church is on two floors: a crypt underneath and elevated the church itself, which is accessed via a ' large scale. The crypt, whose tall columns suggest a Roman building used as a port and commercial functions, is divided by pillars and columns. The upper structure is three-aisled basilica with rich mosaic floor.
