    Overview

    Come to the Manresa Water and Textile Museum (MAT) and enjoy a unique experience, just a few minutes from Montserrat.

    Discover the history and evolution of the Catalan and Manresan textile industry from the late Middle Ages to the present day through the exhibition dedicated to cinema, a sector that made Manresa an international benchmark.

    You can also learn about the history of La Acequia de Manresa, an impressive 26-kilometer canal built in the 14th century that, more than six hundred years later, continues to carry water in the Bages and reaches more than 150,000 people.

    If you visit Montserrat, the MAT is an ideal proposal to complete the day with a different cultural experience, suitable for all ages.
