The Oratory of San Bartolomeo, known as Ermicciolo, was likely the first site of the Eremo del Vivo, the construction of which is attributed to San Romualdo in the early 11th century. The small building has a single nave ending in a semicircular apse. Note the richly decorated façade, which features a series of small hanging arches in the upper section supported by small corbels and two small columns that divide the decorative complex into three sections. The apse also features a crown of small hanging arches.
