Founded in the 12th century, Santa Maria d’Escaladei lived times of great splendour, which are reflected in buildings such as the cloister, the chapterhouse and the refectory in the late Romanesque-early Gothic style, along with the Classical and Baroque air of later refurbishments, such as the striking Ave Maria court.

Set in a singular location, the charterhouse stands at the end of a valley, right by the Montsant sierra nature reserve, an incomparable landscape which conveys a feeling of silence, peace and tranquillity.
