JOURNEY TO THE MIDDLE AGES

in Montsec de Aragón

Ready to journey to the past?
Puente de Montañana is your destination.

Montañana is a mediaeval town that witnessed the Reconquista, where it played an important role. A place that faced up to Al-Ándalus, and that rose from its own ashes.

It was declared an Artistic-Historic Complex in 1974 and an Asset of Cultural Interest as a Monumental Complex in 1984.

Mediaeval village crowned by an impressive Romanesque church with excellent frescoes. The entire stone village is an unmissable destination. What’s more, the guide is very good.” Ángel Barcelona
