Santuario de Santa Teresa de Los Andes, Carmelite convent in Rinconada, Chile
The sanctuary encompasses two sections of 1000 square meters each, featuring white walls and wooden eaves constructed with reinforced concrete for seismic resistance.
Teresa de Los Andes entered the Monastery of the Holy Spirit in 1919 as a postulant, residing there for eleven months before her death.
The sanctuary preserves the remains of Teresa de Los Andes, drawing thousands of pilgrims who seek spiritual connection through her intercession.
