Auction Note:  The Motherhouse of the Sisters of the Most Precious Blood is being developed into a continued care retirement community.
The Sister of the Most Precious Blood have lived and worked in the city of O’Fallon, Missouri since 1874. Their time in O’Fallon represents a 133 year commitment to this city and its residents that they plan on continuing in the development of their property. Since they will be renovating their Motherhouse buildings they have many items that they will no longer need.
Everything is very neat & clean, as you would expect. We will also be selling a lot of the antiques from the building. There is no way to list it all.
