The Church was damaged during WWII, but was reconstructed in 1950.
The restored facade is of Neo-Gothic Design mixed with Pseudo-Romanesque elements.
It became the Shrine of Our Lady of Charity in 1956
when the miraculous image of our lady was crowned as the patroness of Ilocandia.

which helps in alerting the city against possible enemies.
