What to expect
Start your half day trip from Barcelona in comfortable Bus to the mountain of Montserrat. You will visit the Royal Basilica of Montserrat, which holds the famous 12th century Romanesque carving of Virgen Moreneta.
Things to look out for
The Royal Basilica of Montserrat is located up in the mountain of Montserrat, a peak which rises majestically to 4,051 feet (1,236 meters). It is located inside a Benedictine monastery founded in 1025 and is one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the country. It provides a mystical backdrop for the Virgin of Montserrat, the patron saint of Catalonia who is enshrined in the monastery’s Royal Basilica. Even if you are not the religious type, you will enjoy the breathtaking views of this mountaintop sanctuary. You can also sample the selection of liquors made on site.
