View from Cable Car station to Montserrat
The mountain of Montserrat was already a religious and pilgrimage center thousands of years ago. The history of the Catholic temples begins in the 9th century, when the Catholic troops conquered these lands to the Muslims, the "Sarrains". In the 10th century there were already four Catholic Hermitages in the mountain.
