The Hermitage of Montespecchio—also called “Eremo di Santa Maria di Montespecchio”—is an ancient sacred building now reduced to ruins located in the homonymous locality in the Municipality of Murlo, in the province of Siena, Tuscany. It is located within the Basso Merse Nature Reserve, immersed in a forest of oaks and Mediterranean scrub, a few kilometers south of Murlo and about 30 km from Siena
