What to see in the Priorat

The Priorat is far more than vineyards: thousand-year-old monasteries, villages clinging to the rock, Saracen castles and a mountain range — the Montsant — that watches over the whole region.

From the Escaladei charterhouse to the village of Siurana, these are the places that explain the Priorat’s landscape and history. Filter by municipality or type and find them on the map.
