The Marymount Hermitage was dedicated by Bishop Sylvester William Treinen in 1984.[1] It has ten buildings.[2] Initially, there were six buildings: a chapel, a library, a common room and three hermitage buildings.[2] In 1987, three more hermitage buildings and a bell tower were built.[2] By 1994, a new chapel was built. In 2018, a library known as he Mercy House was built. The Hermitage's main resident is Sister Beverly Greger. [2]
