Ann Widdecombe's funeral has been confirmed to be held at Buckfast Abbey - the place where the former politician used to worship.
Widdecombe regularly attended Sunday Solemn Mass at the Abbey, according to Devon Live.
Settled on the River Dart, it is home to a community of Benedictine monks.
Father Abbott issued a statement, saying he is holding Ann, her family and friends in prayer at this "difficult time".
"Ann was a woman of profound faith, a faith which found expression in the public forum of politics," he said.
"Ann was unafraid to express her unwavering convictions, formed through her Roman Catholic faith.
"She had a sharp intellect and was a dedicated public servant. Fr Abbot and the Monastic Community extend their heartfelt condolences to her family and friends."
