Mare de Déu del Mont Sanctuary and the Statue of Jacint Verdaguer

Highlight • Religious Site

The sanctuary is located on the summit of a mountain, Mont, and enjoys privileged views over the Empordà plain and the mountains of Alta Garrotxa and the southern slopes of the Girona Pyrenees. The adjoining church dates from the late Romanesque period, built in the early 14th century, with a pointed barrel vault. In the 18th century, an inn was built, famous for having hosted the poet Jacint Verdaguer, who wrote one of his most famous poems here, "Canigó" (a mountain in the Pyrenees visible from here). In 2008, a public subscription funded a two-meter-high bronze statue of the poet. The inn currently operates as a restaurant and hotel.

Sant Pere de Besalú and the Besalú Bridge

Highlight • Historical Site

The monastery of Sant Pere was founded in 977 by Bishop-Count Miró I and consecrated in 1003 by Count Bernhard I, also known as Taillefer. A Benedictine community of twelve monks lived there. However, with Count Taillefer's death in 1020, the decline of the count's rule began, culminating in its final demise in 1111. From then on, the abbot of the monastery became the highest authority over the population, which gave the Church considerable political influence in the 12th and 13th centuries.

Lake Banyoles

Highlight • Lake

Lake Banyoles is the largest non-coastal pond, and whose water springs naturally, in Catalonia. The lake is a classic cycling destination in Girona, since one of the province's greenways reaches the town of Banyoles, and it also has a bike lane that allows you to go around the lake.
