Santa Maria de Monserrat Abbey,Barcelona 🇪🇸
#wheretogo
When visiting Barcelona in Spain, one of the top attractions not to be missed is the Santa Maria de Monserrat Abbey, located a couple of hours’ drive away from Barcelona.
This is a Benedictine monastery with beautiful architecture. Whether you are religious or not, visiting the Black Madonna (wooden sculpture) at Montserrat is a spiritual and worthwhile experience. You will join in line with a group of people, many of whom have come as pilgrims to the statue.
The Monastery is also located on top of Montserrat mountain with fantastic panaromic views.
Well worth a visit as the outstanding views are just breathtaking!
My rating of this attraction: 4.5 ⭐️ out of 5!
Cremallera de Montserrat, in Montserrat - Barcelona. I recommend renting a car from the airport before arriving, it’s a long way up but worth it, the views are amazing, especially on a clear weather.
