The Santa Maria de Montblanc church boasts an impressive exterior, though it happened to be closed on the day in question. The town of Montblanc is a charming locale imbued with the traditions and folklore of Catalonia.

The tourist information center, known as Oficina de Turisme de Montblanc, is a valuable resource for visitors to the medieval village. It provides maps and answers to any questions tourists may have, and also offers English walking tours during high season. The staff is accommodating and adapts their assistance based on the needs of each family. During the medieval festival, there are numerous activities and delicious food to enjoy in the area. Overall, it's recommended for sightseeing in Montblanc.
Beautiful medieval walled city with shops, museums, galleries, and a central plaza full of cafés. Not handicap accessible (which is normal for this type of site) but otherwise a very pleasant visit.

Unfortunately the castle has not survived till the present days, but walls surrounding the town are still in good condition and look great and powerful. It was such a pleasure to walk calm empty streets in working day, where you can hide in shadows from oppressive summer heat.

Nice little town hidden inside a roman wall.

What a great visit. We went on a Saturday in early May. It was siesta and there weren't many other tourists. We enjoyed a beer and lunch at one of the cafes inside the wall. I think any place you end up will be fine. Stop in the tourist office before you walk around to pick up a map and get answers to any questions you might have. English walking tours are available in high season.

Super helpful lady here. Adapted the information to each family depending on their ages and the type of visit we were doing. Super busy place and she kept being kind and helpful instead of trying to speed things up. Best information point ever!! Thanks!!

Yhe city/village was really nice during the medieval festival, lots of activities, good food and wine. Sightseeing atound the area is recommended.
Mas Foraster winery is an exceptional destination that offers a unique experience. The establishment is not overly popular with tourists, but visitors can expect a hospitable welcome. You'll have the privilege of receiving an exclusive tour from the proprietor's daughter. Additionally, the wines produced here are distinct and noteworthy.
Awesome! Even when you don't speak spanish the people are very welcoming. And the wine is great!

Very bad service, the person who guided us recommended some wines that they did not have for the tasting, the wines were not bad, however the treatment was somewhat discriminatory, even when our group of foreigners spoke the guide asked us to be quiet even though they were 2 times, but when the other groups spoke the guide did not say anything and that the noise they made didn't allow others to hear. I don't recommend this site simply because of the treatment given to tourists.

(Translated by Google) Highly recommended visit. Family winery that produces organic wines in Montblanc. Josep Lluís, father of the owner, paid us a visit of 10. He showed us the vineyards and the facilities, explaining the history and elaboration of their wines in an educational, pleasant and close way. In the tasting they gave us 4 of their wines to try, explaining each one of them in detail and how to carry out a tasting correctly in order to assess the aromas and flavors of the wine.

Visita muy recomendable. Bodega familiar que elabora vinos ecológicos en Montblanc. Josep Lluís, padre del dueño, nos hizo una visita de 10. Nos enseñó los viñedos y las instalaciones, explicándonos la historia y elaboración de sus vinos de una manera educativa, amena y cercana. En la cata nos dieron a probar 4 de sus vinos explicándonos con detalle cada uno de ellos y cómo realizar una cata correctamente para poder valorar los aromas y sabores del vino.

The wine might be good, but the owner is a rude person, he is probably only happy to serve catalans.

(Translated by Google) Highly recommended experience! We were attended to by Josep Lluís, with very clear and detailed explanations, both about the vineyards, the winery and the wines. And the subsequent tasting, impressive! Very high quality wines, multi-awarded everywhere... It should be declared a sanctuary for lovers of good wine. To repeat!

(Translated by Google) We were doing a visit with wine tasting and we loved both Josep Lluis and Aina's explanation and the tasting of their wines. You can tell that they live it intensely and that they enjoy it and transmit it to us with a lot of love that translates into excellent wines. We left the cellar with 7 bottles. Thank you very much for the experience.

(Translated by Google) Today we visited Celler Mas Foraster and it was an incredible experience. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome and captivated by the interesting explanations of Mr. Josep L., without a doubt a clear example of passion for his work and who has enthusiastically shared the story of his family and the entire process and work behind the production of their wines.
The commented wine tasting was the highlight of the visit. Each wine had a unique character and reflected the passion, experience and love put into its production.
In summary, my visit to Celler Mas Foraster has been a true delight for the senses. I recommend this winery without hesitation to all wine lovers looking for an authentic, high-quality experience.
We are not surprised that their wines are winners of so many awards. Now they have one more, ours, our 5 stars 🌟.
Thanks again Josep L

La cata de vinos comentada ha sido el punto culminante de la visita. Cada vino tenía un carácter único y reflejaba la pasión, experiencia y el cariño puesto en su elaboración.
En resumen, mi visita a Celler Mas Foraster ha sido un verdadero deleite para los sentidos. Recomiendo sin dudarlo esta bodega a todos los amantes del vino que busquen una experiencia auténtica y de alta calidad.
No nos sorprende que sus vinos sean ganadores de tantos premios. Ahora tienen uno más, el nuestro, nuestras 5 estrella 🌟.

(Translated by Google) Nice winery tour and wine tasting experience, it was given to me by my partner and it was quite interesting, I missed 2 things if I may, the first is to ask if someone doesn't understand some explanation, like for example when the wines are said to undergo malolactic fermentation. The second, it is always a matter of pride that the wines have prizes and I congratulate the winery, but they are used too much during the tasting from my point of view, they are already exposed in the room. Anyway, I made a small purchase as I like to empathize with people who do tastings and it's a way to say thank you.

Bonica experiència de visita a celler i tast de vins, m'ho va regalar la meva parella i va ser força interessant, he trobat a faltar 2 coses si s'em permet, la primera preguntar si algú no enten alguna explicació, com per exemple quan es diu que els vins fan la fermentació malolàctica. La segona, sempre es un orgull que els vins tinguin premis i felicito al celler però es fa massa ús dels mateixos durant el tast sota el meu punt de vista, ja estàn exposats a la sala. De totes maneres vaig fer una petita compra ja que m'agrada empatitzar amb les persones que fan tasts i es una manera d'agraïr-ho.
Pont Vell, also known as the Old Bridge, is a historic landmark located in the city of Girona, Catalonia. The bridge was constructed in the 11th century and served as a crucial point of passage across the Onyar River for many centuries. It features a unique architecture that blends Romanesque and Gothic styles, with its iconic red brick arches and towers standing tall over the river below.
GALERIA NATÀLIA FERRÉ in Montblanc is a must-visit art gallery that captivates visitors from the moment they step through the door. The art on display is easily understood and appreciated, leaving a lasting impression on all who enter. The talent showcased at this gallery is truly enchanting, making it a delightful experience for art enthusiasts.
(Translated by Google) Gallery and shop of the work of the sculptor Natàlia Ferré.
The work of the sculpture is very characteristic, perfect for decorating or giving as a gift.
An additional incentive is the location itself where the store is located, in its interior part located in the rock.

(Translated by Google) Local on the ground floor of a building built on an 11th century wall. Place with great charm, although what is really striking are the very personal ceramic figures. Natalia recreates close and endearing characters, with great sensitivity... And if you ask her, she can even personalize them.
Quite a discovery!
(Original)
Local en los bajos de un edificio construido sobre una muralla del siglo XI. Lugar con gran encanto, aunque lo realmente llamativo son las figuras de cerámica tan personales. Natalia recrea unos personajes cercanos y entrañables, con gran sensibilidad... Y si se lo pides, incluso puede personalizarlos.

Galetes i Neules Rifacli is a small Spanish biscuit factory that offers free samples for tasting. Visitors can observe the factory and its machines through a window, and there are samples of the biscuits available for tasting before making a purchase. The shop sells big biscuit boxes at affordable prices, making it convenient to stock up on delicious cookies directly from the factory. It's recommended to stop by and taste the cookies before buying them for an enjoyable experience.

(Translated by Google) It is a local specialty confectionery factory and store. There is a table and confectionery tasting across from the counter, and you can taste freely.
Most of the snacks had a strong orange-based scent or a distinctive mint-flavored snack. We don't like orange snacks, so we bought two boxes of two representative, sweet snacks. It costs about 10 euros. The crunchy texture and sweet snacks are delicious with coffee. I'll stop by when I go to Poblet.

(Translated by Google) Factory store prices are MORE EXPENSIVE than any other store in Montblanc! Shouldn't they be cheaper because there is no transport or intermediaries? Well they are more expensive!! It's a shop for tourists. We buy the local ones in the village: Cheaper, we make the local trade and also the factory live. Everyone wins.
Note: It is shameful that the price of carquinyolis, the star product, has gone from €6.50 to more than €12 since the pandemic. And in addition to being more expensive, there are far fewer almonds 🤬
(Original)
Els preus de la botiga de la fàbrica son MÉS CARS que a qualsevol altre botiga a Montblanc! Oi que haurien de ser més barats perquè no hi ha transport ni intermediaris? Doncs són més cars!! És una botiga per als turistes. Els locals els comprem al poble: Més barats, fem viure el comerç local i també la fàbrica. Tothom hi guanya.
Nota: És vergonyós que el preu dels carquinyolis, el producte estrella, hagi passat de 6,50€ a més de 12€ des de la pandèmia. I a més a més de ser més cars, hi ha molta menys ametlla 🤬

(Translated by Google) It is a company with a handmade and quality product. I don't give 5 stars because in traditional carquinyolis they have reduced the quantity and size of the almonds. The pasta is the same as always. But I think this reduction of the product takes away its essence. Everything and receiving a box where there were units that did not have almonds, they sent me a box free of charge and apologizing for the bad experience and thanking me for the quality note.
(Original)
Es una empresa con un producto artesanal y de calidad. No pongo 5 estrellas porque en los carquinyolis de toda la vida han reducido la cantidad y el tamaño de las almendras. La pasta es igual de siempre. Pero creo que está reducción de producto le quita la esencia del mismo . Todo y recibir una caja donde había unidades que no tenían almendras, me mandaron una caja sin cargo y pidiendo disculpas por la mala experiencia y dando las gracias por el apunte de calidad.
