The origin of the church's name is unknown. Possibilities include being named after a laurel (lauro) that once stood nearby, a version of dal Rio ("of the river"), or once standing on an area of dried-up swamp ().

There have been a number of rebuildings since that time (including a major renovation in 1532) and the ship's keel roof dates from the 14th century.
