Culture and traditions

Visiting a monastery is always fascinating. Its monumental architecture, the sense of peace and quiet it exudes, the beauty of its cloisters, the works of art it treasures... But the experience is even better if we can discover their hidden mysteries. We’re going to tell you four stories and legends so that you can become familiar with the monumental sites in the regions of Barcelona.

If you’re in love, celebrate it! We propose a route through Romanticism, a 19^th-century cultural movement associated with musicians, poets and inflamed passions. In the regions of Barcelona, the movement coincided with a series of important (albeit more prosaic) historical events, such as industrialisation, urban planning initiatives and the revival of the Catalan language. Surprise your partner with something different!
