In the 9th century, the Moreneta, a rare Black Madonna, was discovered in a cave here. See a monastery that was built on the mountain, making Montserrat a pilgrimage site for Catholics. This place combines faith, nature, and unique landscapes close to Barcelona. Listen to the local guide who will share the history of Montserrat and point out key sights and trails.
