The Cruzadas de Santa María are rehabilitating the Convent of Gracia in Ávila

The Cruzadas de Santa María are rehabilitating the Convent of Gracia in Ávila to serve young people and preserve the legacy of Saint Teresa. The convent, where Teresa of Jesus lived for 18 months as a young woman, closed permanently after its previous occupants left the diocese.

María Agripina Sanz stated on the program El Espejo de Ávila that the restoration is being completed in phases. Work has already been finished on the south facade on Francisco Gallego Street and includes the rehabilitation of two floors. The project intends to continue through further phases until the entire building is restored.
