Origin and history

The home of Saint Thérèse de l'Enfant Jésus is a monument located in Alençon, Normandy. This place is mainly known as the birthplace of Thérèse Martin, later known as Saint Teresa of the Child Jesus, a major figure in Catholic spirituality. Alençon, the city of Normandy, had a rich history, especially in the 19th century, a period that Thérèse Martin lived in.

The bourgeois houses of that time often reflected the social status of wealthy families, such as the Martins. These houses played a central role in the family and religious life of the region, where the Catholic faith had a prominent place.
