Miraglia Chestnut Tree

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Miraglia chestnut is a monumental tree located near Camaldoli, within the National Park of the Casentinesi Forests, Monte Falterona and Campigna, so named in honor of Mrs. Elena, wife of the commander Nicola Miraglia, who at the end of the nineteenth century was director General of the Ministry of Agriculture. Its dimensions are impressive since its height exceeds 20 m and the base diameter is over 4.2m. The age is not well identifiable since the analysis of the diameter and height of the plant would establish 500 years, however over a century ago the historical register of the forest attributed the plant about 200 years, so today it would be a total of 300.

The chestnut has a longitudinal opening of about 10 m and 1.5 m deep in the lower part, so large that in the past years it has housed a table (later removed following the construction of the fence). Despite everything, the plant is still alive and manages to carry the nutrients necessary for its sustenance towards the top. (Source: Wikipedia)

Camaldoli Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

The Monastery (or Cenobio) is the place where the monks, while also experiencing solitude, experience fraternal life and communion. This dimension of existence is not experienced only among the members of the Community, but is also expressed in the welcome of guests: in the spaces of the Monastery and in those of the Guest House.

Camaldoli Hermitage

Highlight • Religious Site

The hermitage of Camaldoli was founded around 1025 AD by the hermit friar Romualdo, today San Romualdo. At the beginning the structure had five cells for hermits and a church for common prayer. Today there are twenty cells and the most "recent" dates back to 1743. Over the centuries, other common structures have been built: the refectory, the library and the guesthouse. All the cells are built following the model of the first cell of San Romualdo, still visible although incorporated by the library: it is a small house with a garden surrounded by walls. The internal spaces of the hermitage can only be visited during guided tours; the timetables can be found on the Camaldoli community website.
