Visit the Monastery of Santa Maria de Ripoll

What will you discover?

One of the most beautiful and evocative monuments in Catalonia. The Monastery of Santa Maria de Ripoll was founded by Count Guifré el Pelós in the year 879. Highlights include the large 12th century portal, the double-storey cloister, the countal tombs and the necropolis, among others.

To understand the history of the Monastery, it is essential to first visit the Interpretation Centre, located in the chapel of the Congregation, which gives us the keys to understanding its historical significance.
