Prior reservation required.
Fifteenth-century manor house where San Antoni Mª Claret y Clará (1807-1870) was born. The visit, which includes the Church, the house where he was born, and the Museum, offers a journey through the life and work of the Saint, founder of the Congregation of Missionaries of the Heart of Mary and the Claretian Sisters, and confessor of Queen Elizabeth II and her court. It conserves rooms with late eighteenth-century decoration, dining room, chapel and cellar. The Institution aims to make this figure known in the cultural and religious context of the nineteenth century, and to be a point of connection for the Claretian family in the world.
