St. Teresa of Ávila’s Tomb Reopened With 10 Keys After Being Sealed for 110 Years — Her Body Remains Incorrupt…

For 10 years, the tomb of St. Teresa of Avila has been closed. But on the 28th of August, her tomb was opened and revealed that her body is still incorrupt.

Her remains are in a silver urn that requires ten keys to open and was last done so in 1914. The black and white photos that were taken that year show that her state is the exact same.

The opening of St. Teresa of Avila’s tomb marks the beginning of a study of her relics, which will be carried out by Italian doctors and scientists. It also has the approval of the Vatican, that is, the Pope and the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints.

The diocese of Salamanca, Spain, is asking for canonical recognition of these relics, which include the heart and an arm. The purpose is to analyze, preserve and venerate these elements.

St. Teresa of Avila, also known as Saint Teresa of Jesus, was the founder of the Order of the Discalced Carmelites. She died in 1582 and was canonized in 1622. 54 years ago, she became the first female Doctor of the Church.
