The Montserrat Hill offers three main points of interest: first, the site itself, which would be worth visiting even if there were nothing else there, as it is one of these very special "power spots" scattered all over the world.

The second point of interest is the Santa María Benedictine monastery, formally founded at the beginning of the 11th century. As it is still a live monastery, only its Basilica is open to visitors.

The third main point of interest is a shrine to a Black Madonna: Our Lady of Montserrat or "La Moreneta" as she affectionately known all over Catalonia. Black Madonnas are one of Europe most mysterious traditions as its origins and full signification have been lost in time.

The Montserrat Hill is alive and important to the Catalans, who flock there by the thousands on all kinds occasions throughout the year to gather and venerate La Moreneta, but also to spend the day outdoors in a spectacular site.
