Spanish Mediterranean Coast Tour ~ Barcelona (Region) Its city center is located on a plain from which we can see the rocky outlines of the Montserrat Nature Reserve. The houses of Manresa are arranged around the Basilica of Santa Maria della Sio. The building combines Romanesque and Renaissance elements, although it is primarily a Gothic structure. These frescoes are also medieval and constitute important examples of Catalan Gothic painting. In the historic district we can see famous buildings such as the Town Hall, the Palace of Justice and the Bell Bridge. The bridge is associated with the cult of Saint Ignacio de Loyola in Manresa and the Santa Cova complex. This sanctuary was the home of Saint Ignacio de Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus, during his stay in town. As for modernist architecture, Manresa has some beautiful buildings, such as the one built by local architect Ignasi Oms i Ponsa. Some examples include the Torrents House, the Lluvià Tower, and the La Florinda Flour Mill. The Catalan industrial architecture of this town includes many other factories. #AprilDestinations2025 #SpainTravel #Catalonia
