The establishment, on the initiative of Luigi Guanella with the support of Pope Pius X instead. The church was dedicated to Saint Joseph . Thanks to private donations, construction began in 1909. The architect was Aristide Leonori .

The pastoral care on site is carried out by the servants of charity .
