The interior has a Latin cross-shaped plan with a decorated ceiling.
Above the main altar lies the painting of the " Santissima Vergine Assunta in Cielo" surrounded by Angels of the twentieth century and that of "Santissimo Salvatore" of Tuscany school.
On a side chapel dedicated to the protector San Michele Arcangelo there are three paintings of the saint and a sculptured carved statue that is brought to processions.
In the church are the relics of Father Marcello da Torre, a Franciscan friar who died in the breath of holiness living at the end of 1500.
