The Hermitage on Mount Alvernia
The Hermitage stands on Cat Island’s highest hill, a small stone retreat reached by a short ascent. Come for Fra Jerome’s architecture and the island view.
The scale of the building is striking against the hilltop setting, while the climb makes arrival part of the experience. This is both a viewpoint and a religious site. Move slowly enough to appreciate its form and setting on Cat Island.
What to look for
