===Twentieth century=== [[Minster in Thanet Priory|Minster Abbey]] is a house incorporating remains of the [[Anglo-Saxon]] abbey and alleged to be the oldest continuously inhabited house in England. It now houses the village's third religious community, a [[priory]] of [[Roman Catholic]] [[Benedictine]] sisters that is a daughter community of St. Walburg, [[Eichstätt]] in [[Bavaria]]. It was settled in 1937 by [[refugee]]s fleeing [[Nazi Germany]] and continues to flourish as an international community.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.minsterabbeynuns.org/history-modern.html |title=Minster Abbey |access-date=13 September 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080907205105/http://www.minsterabbeynuns.org/history-modern.html |archive-date=7 September 2008 }}</ref> The Priory has the care of a relic of St Mildred that had been in the care of a church in [[Deventer]] in the [[Netherlands]] since the [[Protestant Reformation|Reformation]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://monasticmatrix.usc.edu/monasticon/?function=detail&id=963 |title=Monasticon: Community: Minster in Thanet |work=Monastic Matrix |publisher=[[University of Southern California]] |access-date=14 September 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110927174045/http://monasticmatrix.usc.edu/monasticon/?function=detail&id=963 |archive-date=27 September 2011 }}</ref>
