The church of San Rocco and Santa Croce was built in 1634 by vote and was also used as a hospital during the period of the plague. It has a single vaulted nave with three altars and a large fresco. It seems that the simplicity and poverty of the structure are due to the fact that it arose as a vote of the people in contrast to the opulence of the parish church.

It is said that Saint Roch, born in Montpellier, was on a pilgrimage to Rome and, on his way back, stopped in Gropello, where he was struck by the plague. According to tradition, he was healed by an angel who healed his wounds.
