Day 580 - 16/05/2015 : St Pere de Casserres's restoration

Restoration of the monastery between 1994 and 1998 takes place under the auspices of the services of the Department of Culture of the Generalitat and its architect Joan-Albert Adell i Gisbert.

In July 10th of 1998, the newly restored monastery is inaugurated and opened to the public.

Restoration work is completed with the installation of furnishings (thanks to the patronage of the Caixa de Manlleu), designed to help visitors appreciate the function of each room.

Finally, the improvement and resurfacing of the access road is completed in 2002 and a new monastery guidebook is produced, available in four languages and published by Caixa de Manlleu.

The presbytery is repaired in readiness for the reconsecration of the monastery church on June 29th.

Fancy to visit it?
