In 1775, the church was granted to the "Complementari", who restored the church in a Baroque style. The present church of San Giacomo was reconstructed by reopening an alternative older portal, surmounted by a coat of arms of a shell with crossed swords. Due to the damage from the bombardment of 1943 and the Irpinia earthquake of 1980, the building is not longer consecrated, and used for temporary art exhibitions. The interior artwork has been moved elsewhere.
