The remains of the monumental complex that includes the Monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes are an excellent example of a medieval settlement. Experts believe the style is uniquely autochthonous. Different legends recount the origins of the site, but the first traces of a religious point date back to the 9th century. It was the center of the Church’s power in the region from the 11th to 14th century. The monks departed from the monastery in 1798, and the structure fell into ruin. It was declared a historical monument in 1930 and has been meticulously restored in several phases over the past 90 years. We’ll visit the church, monastic cells, dining room, and several annexes within the complex.
