About Saint Teresa de Jesus 500th Anniversary

The 500th anniversary of the birth of Saint Teresa of Jesus, one of the most prominent figures of the Spanish Golden Age, was celebrated on 28 March 2015. A remarkable humanitarian and mystic, Saint Teresa of Jesus, also known as Saint Teresa of Ávila, played an active role in the reform of the Carmelite Order. Saint Teresa of Jesus founded convents and restored the original Rule, which dated back to the 13th century, without the mitigations that had been introduced over time. Her written work provides an insight into her fascinating human and spiritual journey.
