"The story of how a 12th-century stone monastery from Segovia, Spain, ended up in South Florida is a long tale that involves William Randolph Hearst, a warehouse in Brooklyn, and 11,000 wooden crates. When it was reconstructed, Time Magazine called it the “biggest jigsaw puzzle in history” and the end result stands at 167th Street and West Dixie Highway in North Miami. The fully-rebuilt Monastery of St. Bernard de Clairvaux looks like a little slice European history dropped in the middle of Miami, and is still an operating congregation." - MATADOR_NETWORK
