The church's restoration was overseen by architect and engineer S. Privitera. The facade was rebuilt, with the original large central stone cross being replaced with a smaller one and two small belfries added. The central ornamental window on the facade was also enlarged and lowered to improve the interior lighting. A traditional staircase consisting of stair corbels protruding from the chapel's western side, allowing access to the roof, was also removed. Works of art The main painting behind the high altar, attributed to Mattia Preti, depicts the martyrdom of St Matthew the Apostle and dates from 1688. It is believed that this painting was commissioned by the French Commendatory Nicola’ Communette.
