Located within the Hacienda, the Villa Aloysius is a multi-purpose building with the founder’s memorial hall, chapel, the little replica Chapel of Banneux, the nun’s convent, guesthouse, café, restaurant, and conference rooms. It is a place in which a hundred thousand spiritual sons and daughters, friends, benefactors, and retreatants come to commemorate and celebrate the spirit of Father Aloysius. The aim was to repair and reuse everything as much as possible: the bricks that are exposed are left as they are to show that this is not a newly built house but a place that relates to the past.
