The facility at Calle Max Aub, 7 became Saint Louis University — Madrid's fourth hall this month after much time under construction.

Manresa Hall opened its doors to students at the beginning of the 2024-2025 school year. The space has undergone construction and renovation to better suit the SLU-Madrid community's needs.

The ground floor that continues to house SLU—Madrid's Marketing and Communications is now connected to the adjacent building. The new 10,763-square-foot (1,000 square-meter) space is equipped with six classrooms, a conference room, a physics and computer engineering lab and a nursing lab. There is also a media lab conveniently located across from the communication faculty office.

Students can access a small lounge area and two study rooms, which will double as testing areas for academic accommodations during exam periods.

Manresa Hall will be open from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Friday.
