For the first time since 1914, the tomb of the Spanish Saint Teresa of Avila (1515-1582) was opened on August 28. DiocesisDeAvila.com announced that the body remains "incorrupt".

The medical and scientific team in charge of studying the relics found the body in the same condition as it was 110 years ago, according to photographs taken at the time.

The tomb is located in the town where Teresa died, in northwestern Spain, Alba de Tormes. To open the coffin containing the relics, 10 different keys are needed, three of which are normally kept in Rome.

The research team will spend the next four days studying the relics.

They hope to learn more about the saint's life, including the types of illnesses she suffered.

It has already been found that she suffered from calcium spurs in her foot, which made it impossible for her to walk without pain, but she still walked anyway and reached Alba de Tormes.

"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
