Museums and Monuments

The Grand Tour of Catalonia is an itinerary of more than 2,000 kilometres inspired by the great journeys popular among young European nobility in the mid-19^th century. It has been designed as a single thirteen-day itinerary or in five sections of between five and seven days. The fact that it is divided into stages allows you to plan short getaways and take advantage of however many days you have available. Below we propose three routes to travel by motorhome on which you can discover the best landscapes in the Barcelona region.

Many of us tend to associate Romanesque art with austerity and simplicity, discreetly blending in with nature. And this is very true, especially of the small churches built in the 11^th and 12^th centuries in mountain villages. However, it can also be a rich and complex artistic style that reflects the aristocratic sensibility of the monks who lived in the monasteries at that time.

Places such as Montserrat Monastery, Cardona Castle or the Montseny Natural Park and Biosphere Reserve are fixtures on the list of must-see places in the regions of Barcelona. But there are also other marvellous yet little-known places that are well worth visiting, even though you won’t find them in most travel guides. Here are seven of them.
