A hermitage is located on this site. A place of reflection, silence, an eye for nature and spirituality. The resident can already explain this in a whisper. There is also a library.

This small church is located near Mount Argon, at the beginning of Val Cavallina. It was built starting in 1121, the current facade was completed in the 17th century and is in Romanesque style. The frescoes inside have been attributed - although there remains a certain degree of uncertainty - to the 17th century artist from Bergamo Pietro Baschenis.
