About this place
The Jangdeok-dong house of the Daughters of Mary Immaculate, or Marianist Sisters, is a women's religious community in Jangdeok-dong, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju. The Catholic Church Directory in Korea separately registers the address at 55 Wangbeodeul-ro as the “Jangdeok-dong house,” and this address is the same as that of Jangdeok-dong Catholic Church in the Archdiocese of Gwangju.
The Catholic Church Directory in Korea records the Daughters of Mary Immaculate as founded on May 25, 1816 and as entering Korea on May 17, 1979. The Jangdeok-dong house is one of the congregation's local Marianist communities in Gwangju, where religious community life and prayer take place at the same location as the parish church.
This community has a similar name to the congregation's Gwangju house in Chipyeong-dong, but the two are distinct. The official subsidiary name “Jangdeok-dong house” and the address at 55 Wangbeodeul-ro are therefore essential for identifying this place correctly.
