Hermitage of San Cassiano, Religious hermitage in Lumignano di Longare, Italy
The hermitage complex includes a main church building and a separate chapel dedicated to the Holy Sepulcher, situated against limestone cliffs in the Berici Hills.
The first documented mention of the hermitage dates to 1164 when the Bishop of Padua granted the Saxo Santi Caxiani as a feudal estate to Count Uguccione Maltraversi.
Archaeological excavations in 1994 revealed thirteen rock-carved tombs from the 5th to 9th centuries, with ten remaining visible near the religious structure.
The hermitage opens on the first Sunday of each month from 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM, with free admission and guided tours available for groups outside regular hours.
Natural caves integrated into the structure serve as architectural elements, with one cave forming the original apse of the ancient church.
