Monastery Gift Keeps It From Sale to Lord’s Custody
Pentland, age 74, donated the Segovia monastery once owned by three Episcopal dioceses with a stipulation that it cannot be sold or disposed of. The site, built under King Alfonso VII, housed Cistercian monks for 700 years. Hearst bought it in the 1920s, shipped stones to New York, then abandoned interest. Gimbel’s later held it, then two businessmen kept it as a tourist site. In 1965 Episcopalians bought it and began services again.
