Informations supplémentaires

The Mountain of Montserrat is located about 40 kilometers northwest of Barcelona. It features dramatic rock crags, a vast monestary and hermitage caves. It's history dates to 50 AD when St. Peter is said to have placed an imae of the Virgin Mary in one of the mountain caves. Today, the monastery's buildings include a hotel, post office, souvenir shop and bar. The Renaissance basilica, dating from 1560, is the only religious building open to the public. A museum features archeological discoveries by traveling monks along with paintings and sculpture. Using two funicular trains, visitors also can explore mountain trails to caves and hermitages.
