Montserrat & Roc de Sant Gaietà Tour

OverView

Montserrat The Benedictine Abbey at Montserrat is at an altitude of 725 meters. From the monastery’s terrace you have spectacular views on the rugged mountain peaks above and the valleys far below. This mountain top monastery is very popular among Catalans, and Catholic pilgrims come from far and wide to see the Black Madonna, hence its familiar Catalan name, la Moreneta ("The little dark-skinned one"). The Escolania music school in Montserrat’s monastery is one of the oldest of its kind in Europe. The Montserrat boys choir consists of around fifty escolanets aged 10-14.You can listen to their performances in the basilica almost every day except Saturdays and the July and August holidays.
