Traditions of the Monastery of S. João d'Arga

The Serra d'Arga has in its history several legends, some with a strong connection to the Monastery of S. João d'Arga, which is the ex-libris of the mountain with annual festival in honor of S. João, which is celebrated on August 28 and 29.
Having undergone several renovations over the centuries, the monastery's construction refers to Romanesque architecture.
We will tell you the story and talk about local traditions.
