The church was erected in 1586-1588 at the site were a prior church dedicated to San Niccolò was located. It was commissioned by [[Vespasiano Gonzaga]]. The church has an octagonal layout, similar to the [[Donato Bramante|Bramantesque]] church of [[Santa Maria Incoronata, Lodi|Santa Maria Incoronata]] in [[Lodi, Lombardy|Lodi]]. 

The church has eight surrounding chapels, one with Vespasiano's funereal monument, were decorated mainly in the 18th century. The frescoes in the church were painted with [[Illusionistic ceiling painting|quadratura]] in 1768 by a team led by [[Antonio Galli Bibiena]].

Among the altarpieces in the chapels is a ''Flight to Egypt'' by an unknown Parmesan painter of the second half of the 17th century. The second chapel has a painting depicting the ''Crowned Virgin with Saints Pellegrino Laziosi and [[Giuliana Falconieri]], and the blessed Gioacchino Piccolomini'' by a follower of [[Giovanni Morini]]. The wooden confessionals were carved by Antonio Maria Lodi.

The funereal monument to Vespasiano, in polychrome marble, was built in 1592 by [[Giovanni Battista della Porta (architect)]]. The bronze sitting statue of Vespasiano was created circa 1560 by [[Leone Leoni]]. During recent restorations, the skeletal remains of Vespasiano were found with his badge of the [[Order_of_the_Golden_Fleece]], granted to him in 1585 by the [[King Philip II of Spain]], and awarded by [[Ottavio Farnese]] in Parma. The jewel is now conserved in the Sala del Tesoro of the Museum of Sacred Art in Sabbioneta.<ref>[http://www.iatsabbioneta.org/apl/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=49%3Achiesa-della-beata-vergine-incoronata&catid=34&Itemid=69&lang=it Pro Loco Sabbioneta], history of church.</ref>
