HistoryOriginally a church annexed to a Cistercian Convent. The building was designed by Fra Giuseppe Nuvolo, and built initially by Silvestro Cordella. Construction was prolonged from 1631-1681. The church takes its name from the sandy ground upon it was built. In 1837, it underwent restoration by Francesco de Cesare, and an oval dome was added in the early 19th century.

The interior has bas-reliefs by Vincenzo Annibale depicting a story from the Life of San Carlo and a Christ. A partially damaged, but much revered, crucifix (1599) by Michelangelo Naccherino, once stood in the Basilica dello Spirito Santo. Gennaro Maldarelli frescoed the cupola.[1] Michele di Napoli painted a San Francesco di Paola.[2] Giuseppe Mancinelli painted Carlo Borromeo providing the Viaticum to victims of the Plague.[3] References1. ^Francis Napier, 10th Lord Napier, page 29. 2. ^Napier, page 32. 3. ^Napier, page 37.
