Could not do audio as Montserrat wanted a $50 per unit deposit upfront. Directions were bad. Had to purchase arial tram which worked out being way cool. It is an uphill climb, so 3 in my party had difficulty walking.

Lo que más me gustó del tour fue la combinación de naturaleza y cultura. El trayecto en tren fue cómodo y muy fácil de seguir, y al llegar, el monasterio impresiona desde el primer momento. La audioguía está muy bien hecha y ayuda a entender la historia de Montserrat y el significado de La Moreneta. La visita fue organizada, tranquila y con tiempo suficiente para disfrutar de las vistas y la atmósfera del lugar.

Locatia este foarte frumoasa mai ales daca o combinati si cu intraseu de drumetie. Totusi nu pot acorda nota maxima datorita dificultatilor in utilizarea serviciilor comandate. Trebuie sa mergi in msi multe locatii diferite pentru a lua bilete pentru trenuri sau pentru acces la muzeu. Aceste locatii nu sunt prezentate foarte detaliat. De asemenea in prezentare se afera posibilitatea de avopta pentru transport cu tren + tren cu cremaliera sau tren+ telecabina. In realitate am primit rezervarea oentru tren +tren cu cremaliera, neavand posibilitatea pentru a opta pentru telecabina.

It was the most amazing place to visit. Tickets where easy to pick up at station, and staff there were very helpful. First issue was getting the audio guide . Would be helpful for more information on the steps to receive that as would have helped. We only found out near end that information point was place to go. The monastery was stunning and the black Madonna was something I'll never forget . But definetly more practical information would be great assistance

Enjoy a seamless cultural journey from Barcelona to Montserrat with transportation, access to the sacred Black Madonna, and an audio guide that lets you explore at your own pace.

Getting started

Start your journey at FGC Plaça Espanya in Barcelona, where your tickets will be validated. Then, board the R5 line using the train ticket included in your pass. On arrival at Monistrol de Montserrat, switch to the rack railway for a stunning uphill ride to the monastery.

What to expect

Montserrat Monastery

An iconic mountaintop sanctuary, the monastery is revered for its religious significance, breathtaking views, and the statue of the Black Madonna.

Features

Black Madonna: Carved in poplar wood back in the 12th century, the Black Madonna is the monastery’s most sought-after attraction.

Basilica of Montserrat: The basilica is the spiritual heart of the monastery, revered for its intricate architecture and almost breathtaking acoustics.

Museum of Montserrat: Home to more than 1,300 works across six curated collections, the museum is home to artistic wonders by the likes of Monet, Picasso, and Caravaggio.

Train & rack railway: The train ticket from the Plaça Espanya station in Barcelona, and the pass to the rack railway onwards from Montserrat to the monastery add to this experience’s convenience.

Audio guide: A multilingual audio guide in eight different languages ensures you can immerse yourself in the monastery’s wonders and wander through it at your own pace.

Upgrades

Escolania de Montserrat Choir Performance: Composed of around 50 boys, the choir’s voice within the basilica’s solemn walls adds a transcendent quality to your visit. This is a worthy upgrade!

What to bring

Carry a valid ID or passport to get your tickets validated.

Wear a pair of comfortable and grippy walking shoes to enjoy this experience without breaking a sweat.

Bring your smartphone fully charged & your best earphones to make the most of the audio guide.

What’s not allowed

Men and women must wear clothes that cover their knees and shoulders.

Entering the monastery in flip-flops is prohibited.

Flash photography, tripods & selfie sticks are prohibited inside the basilica.

The train and rack railway are accessible to visitors with reduced mobility.

Additional information

The time slot you select while booking your ticket is for access to the Black Madonna.

The first train from Barcelona is at 8:36am, so if you book a time slot before 10am (factoring in a 1.5-hour commute), you will need to arrange alternate means of transportation to the monastery.

You can explore the rest of the monastery at your own pace.

When choosing your slot for entry to Black Madonna, factor in your commute time from Barcelona and the uphill walk to the monastery.

Plan and catch a train at least 1.5 hours before your reserved time to ensure a smooth visit.

The Tabernacle of Our Lady is closed during services to ensure silence for those praying.

The details to download your audio guide will be sent once you book your tickets.
