Mother House of the Missionaries of Charity

The Mother House of the Missionaries of Charity, located in Kolkata, India, was established by Mother Teresa in 1950. This mission center served as the starting point for her work with the city’s underprivileged and ailing. Today, it remains a residence for the charity’s nuns and houses the tomb of Mother Teresa, now a canonized saint. Visitors can explore the simple, serene environment that reflects the humble dedication of its founder, offering a glimpse into the life and legacy of one of the 20th century’s most revered humanitarians.
