Subsequently to the act of donation of Pope Clement VIII in 1595, construction began of a new convent which was built according to the canonical scheme of the Order: a large cloister, a small cloister and the small dwellings (houses) for the monks.
The small cloister was obtained to the right of the chancel from the new church, in the place of the ancient natatio; the cells, however, were arranged on the western side, far from the exterior wall and along the perimeter of the cloister.
