The church of San Rocco is located in Ripi near Sant'Angelo gate, also known as the Door of the Executioner.
Originally it was just dedicated to Sant'Angelo, as reflected by a parchment of 1229.
The old church was destroyed by an earthquake in 1350.
It was rebuilt in 1753 under the invocation of San Rocco perhaps to invoke protection against the plague.
In the church are two works of art by Pierluigi Conciatori and an ancient relic "ex ossibus San Rochi" of 1712.
