The Royal Abbey of Santa Maria de Poblet is a Cistercian monastery, founded in 1151, and is located at the feet of the Prades Mountains.

This Cistercian abbey in Catalonia is one of the largest in Spain and at its centre is a 12th-century church. The austere, majestic monastery, which has a fortified royal residence and contains the pantheon of the kings of Catalonia and Aragon, is an impressive sight.
