According with its statutes, the Foundation Abadia de Montserrat 2025, over the years, has linked to this project companies institutions and also individual persons. Thanks to it, it has been possible to initiate an important task of rehabilitation and expansion of the architectonic, artistic and social infrastructures of Montserrat as a whole.

The Foundation’s challenges to face are very important.

This affluence of visitors, associated to the complexity of Montserrat, implies exigencies of attention and service to the visitor.

We desire to be seen as a modern, flexible, and agile institution, which has the aim to be technologically updated and giving value to our collaborator members and to the Abbey of Montserrat.
We work for obtaining the economic and in-kind resources, from whom is interested in what Montserrat represents, in order to cover its needs in its areas of activity and infrastructures.
We do it with vocation of service, trasnperency, coherence, honestity. Having always present the interests and expectatives of the Montserrat’s areas of activities and also those of our present and future members.
