Il Redentore was built as a votive church in thanksgiving for deliverance from a major outbreak of the plague that decimated Venice between 1575 and 1576, in which some 46,000 people (25–30% of the population) died. [1] The Senate of the Republic of Venice commissioned the architect Andrea Palladio to design the votive church. [2]
The facade was simplified by the architect Jappelli, who declined to add two bell-towers. The new church was consecrated in 1884. Stained glass windows were added in 1922. The organ dates 1926. Some describe the interior as resembling Palladio's Venetian church of Il Redentore.

In addition, the Zitelle's issues with funding present another barrier to being able to afford the design fee for the Church.
