DAUGHTERS OF CHRIST THE KING (Granada). - Religious institute founded in Granada on 26 May 1876 by the canon G. Gras Granollers. It obtained the decree of praise on 15 Feb. 1898 and approval on 16 Aug. 1901. The constitutions, of Augustinian inspiration, were approved on 4 Dec. 1906 and definitively on 12 July 1944.

The particular purpose of the Institute is to give special worship to the kingship of Christ and a solidly Christian education to girls in colleges, workshops and Sunday schools.

In 1948 it had 30 houses and 300 nuns.
