Montserrat Experience Ticket with Throne of Our Lady

Montserrat comprises the Sanctuary of the Virgin Mary of Montserrat and the Benedictine monastery, which, for 1,000 years, has been at the service of pilgrims from all over the world, who come to worship the Black Madonna, a Romanesque sculpture dating from the late 12th century featuring delicately carved features. When you are in Montserrat: Start by going to the Information Office, where you will have the Open air Museum: thanks to an audio guide, a map and an informative booklet, you can discover on your own all the most important facets of the monastery's history, not to mention the major sites of the Sanctuary of Montserrat. The Audiovisual Space “Montserrat portes endins” showcases what Montserrat is all about and what it means. The exhibition revolves around three main elements: the mountain, the monastery and the sanctuary. The Museum of Montserrat (MDM) is home to one of the country's most important art collections.

There also are temporary exhibitions in addition to the permanent collection. The MDM was declared Museum of National Interest in 2006.
