Monasterio de Santa María de la Vid, La Vid

History

Founded in 1162, it was inhabited by the Premonstratenses monks until 1835 when the religious suppression forced the order to abandon the monastery.

After thirty years of military occupation (1835-1865), the Philippine Province of the Augustine Order acquired the monastery and dedicated it to the education of missionaries destined to work in the Philippines. In 1926, the Spanish Augustine Province replaced the Philippine missionaries and turned the monastery into the headquarters of the Inter-Provincial Noviciate.
