A chapel dedicated to Saint Gualbert, patron saint of foresters, stands next to the Holy Beech Tree, which, according to tradition/legend, sprouts leaves before the others and sheds them later. The current beech tree is a scion of the old tree, which, according to annals, dates back to the 8th/10th century and is said to have had a circumference of 3 meters and a height of 25 meters. The site is easily accessible with a short detour from the road leading up to Secchieta. It is located a short distance upstream from the Abbey.

Refill water at the small fountain.

"The Feast of the Assumption is a warning sign: detach yourselves a little from the earth! And Mother Church reminds us that on this feast we should ask God for the grace to strive for the things of heaven. But this day also answers a question that many people ask themselves today: don't we also have a right to the things of this earth, a right to rest, to pleasure, a right to follow the latest fashion if it pleases us? Yes, we have this right, but within certain limits!" (Albino LUCIANI / Pope John Paul I.)
