  Montserrat


Montserrat is the holy mountain of Spain and is a place of pilgrimage.

Rich spanish couples consider it the best place to be married and often spend the first few days of their marriage on the mountain.

There is a monastery on the mountain and monks of this order cannot leave the mountain without special permission.

There is also a beautiful church, with a black Madonna wearing gold robes.
