The church of St. Augustine in Gallese was originally dedicated to St. Benedict.
In the IX-X century was part of a large monastery that included the convent now occupied by the Suore del Preziosissimo Sangue and the so-called "Mill of the Duke".
The Annunciation chapel was painted by artists of the school of Antonio Del Massaro da Viterbo, called the Pastura, with scenes of the Annunciation, the Nativity, the Adoration of the Magi and the Massacre of the Innocents.
Above the altar is a table painted with the image of Madonna del buon Consiglio and on the sides are placed oil paintings depicting St. Benedict and St. Augustine.
