« Those who have seen La Verna without seeing Cerbaiolo have seen the mother without seeing the son », says an old adage. Local lore holds that Saint Anthony of Padua would retreat here in prayer. This Franciscan hermitage was destroyed during skirmishes beween local partisans and Nazi troops, but thanks to the devotion of the hermit Chiara, who recently passed away, it was restored to its current state. Today it is home to another hermit who has chosen to remove himself from the modern world.
Hours: 9:00 to 11:45 a.m./ 3:30 to 5:45 p.m. daily; 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. Sun.
