"Three different church orders now live together under the same roof in perfect harmony"

The nuns of the Gorizia region during World War I

Abstract

The contribution deals with the activity of the nuns in the region of Goriška during World War I, which because of the battles along the Isonzo front strongly marked the life in the monasteries of the Gorizia region. The contribution gives a review of all the six women orders in the province: the Ursuline Sisters, the Notre dame Sisters, Sisters of Charity, the Kajetan Sisters, and the School Sisters. The majority withdrew into exile, only a small number waited the August 1916 marching in.
