The Federation of Monasteries of Hieronymite Nuns of Santa Paula is studying the future of the Santa Elisabet de Palma monastery and has made it clear that they will prioritize its use for religious purposes, if possible, to house a community of nuns. Among other options, they have pointed to the possibility of dedicating the convent to social or educational use, as Saint Jerome was dedicated to teaching Christian morality. In any case, the order of the Hieronymites is clear that the convent will not, under any circumstances, be converted into a hotel, and they have pointed to this possibility as an "unfounded rumor" from the time of Bishop Javier Salinas.

The Supreme Court has dismissed the appeal on points of law filed by the Bishopric of Mallorca against the ruling that recognized the Hieronymite nuns of the monastery of Santa Isabel de Palma as owners of the property. Thus, the high court considers the decision issued by the Provincial Court of Palma in May 2024 to be final.

What about the covered pavilion that has been due to be built for years around the Torre dels Enagistes sports area? What are the problems that mean a project so necessary for Manacor's sport still hasn't even had the land bought?

My first memory of school is fear. At the Augustinian nuns' house in Andratx, there was a room separated by a curtain where they locked away the talking dolls. They left them in the dark. Even today I remember the inconsolable cries on the other side.

Scissors, paper, and a lot of patience. What for decades was an almost secret practice, reserved for convents and a few expert hands, is now experiencing a true resurgence in Mallorca. The openwork wafers, a symbol of Christmas in the Islands, have left the churches and returned to the villages, with workshops full of people, new generations, and an official declaration as an Intangible Cultural Heritage Asset.
