It was founded in 1085; in 1112 it was entrusted to the Vallombrosani and in 1627 to the Cistercians, that remained there until the suppression in 1786.
The Romanesque church has the typical Vallombrosano characteristics: a nave with an exposed roof , an ample transept with Gothic vaults and three apses in the back wall. Where the nave and the transept cross a small dome is inserted, externally protected by a four sided dome cladding.
The facade, enriched by an XVIIIth century portal, is covered with light limestone ashlar masonry. The only decorative elements are a carved four legged figure inside one of the lunettes of the transept, and two animals, slightly in relief, carved on the facade. Inside there’s the canvas with the “Madonna of Good Counsel”.
