Montserrat is the spiritual and mystical heart of Barcelona and Catalonia. We’ve taken several trips there and experienced the amazing sights and secrets of the mountain retreat.
Montserrat is a monastery with hundreds of years of history of clerics who came to the mountain for peace and spiritual reflection. The monastery’s chapel is home to La Moreneta, the patron saint of Catalonia.
