The Royal Monastery of Santes Creus is located on the banks of the Gaià River. It is a Cistercian monastic complex founded in 1158, which had a monastic life until 1835. The church houses the royal tombs of Peter the Great, James II and his wife Blanca of Anjou, and the Admiral Roger de Llúria. The plan organizes the spaces according to the needs of the community, spaces where visitors can relive past monastic life: the chapter house, the dormitory, the Gothic cloister or the church, among others. They also have the option of viewing the scenographic and audiovisual installation "The Cistercian World".
