Biography

Blessed Karolina Gerhardinger, also known as Caroline Gerhardinger, Maria Teresa Gerhardinger, Maria Theresia of Jesus, or Theresa of Jesus Gerhardinger, was born on June 20, 1797, in Stadtamhof, Bavaria, Germany. She came from a humble working-class family and received her education from the Augustinian canonesses. However, in 1809, due to a decree by the Bavarian government, religious orders, including the Augustinian canonesses, were closed.
