This 13th-century church, given to the Dominicans, was enlarged by Michelozzo in the 15th century at the same time as the convent complex, then by Giambologna in 1580.
The Baroque facade dates from the 18th century.
The interior, a single nave, contains several chapels: the Salviati Chapel is dedicated to Saint Antoninus of Florence. The reliquary sarcophagus containing his body is under the altar. Many paintings by Renaissance painters adorn the walls of the church.
