The Hermitage of Calomini, a short walk from the farm, is nestled under a huge overhanging rock cliffs. The church was built hugging the side of the mountain, and more than half, the sacristy and most of the convent, remains excavated into the mountain, with only the use of a chisel. The top of this excavation ends in a very wide dome. Dating from the eleventh century, has been many interventions in the history of expansion especially in the 700, when the community of monks was built and expanded a lot the double colonnade, enlarged the cave to receive the sacristy of the church and placed on the floor completed every detail that would help make this place worthy of admiration of prayer. It seems that in a place where today the rocks give pure water, the image of the Virgin Mary who is venerated in a shrine, turned to a girl from Calomini. For this reason the shrine is dedicated to the Marian cult and has always been many pilgrimages.

The hermitage of Calomini is located along the road to the village of Vergemoli, above the village of Gallicano.
