Mountain Monserrat is a very special place. Not just a place where you can walk around and see fantastic views, it is also a place where you can enjoy the fresh air of the mountains, and can think in peace and quiet surrounded by the real beauty of nature, and the real beauty of stone. On the top of the mountain or in the monastery you can also touch a holy black Madonna and share your secret with her. Monserrat is a “window to the heaven” so to speak and has earned a reputation for being a special place. Pilgrims from all over the world are coming together here.
It also happens, that the main shrine of Catalonia – Monserrat Monastery is surrounded by endless vineyards, which in fact, is not accidental because in the beginning, the cultivation of vineyards and the production of wine were the main occupation of monastic communities. Wine in our time plays an important role in church tradition, being part of the sacrament.
A visit to the holy site of the monastery of Monserrat and wine cellars within the same route will leave you with a profound and valid experience.
