It should be noted that the Poor Clares are a cloistered and not an apostolic order, so the monastery's interactions with the world are limited. The community has never maintained a school or dispensary: the monastery's archives reflect this life of enclosure.

Various files that mainly concerns land, buildings and taxes issues.

  All these patterns are stamped and numbered for a sacred art exhibition in the 1940s. It is not known if the models represented were actually made, but in any case, they are not kept in the sacristy. Some bosses have needle and pin holes on them, suggesting that they have been made.
