It consists of three buildings. The one further down the valley dates back to 1475, belonging to the Vanini family. In 1661 it passed to the nuns of S. Giovanni Battista of Bologna, as an inheritance from Giovanni Mei, whose daughter was a nun in that convent. Remodeled in the 16th century, it has a portal and a 14th-century window of beautiful workmanship, perhaps unique in the entire mountain. The building upstream, in ruins, has aspects of the 16th century. Of notable impact and beauty are the statues in Montovolo stone and Carrara marble by the sculptor Luigi Faggioli, exhibited in the green area facing the ancient buildings.
