Portal de la Mare de Déu d’Scala Dei stands as a striking remnant of the ancient Carthusian monastery of Scala Dei, the first one in the Iberian Peninsula. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Montsant mountain range in the Priorat region, this Gothic-inspired archway served as an entry point to the monastic complex founded in the 12th century. Around the portal, you’ll find ruins that echo the ascetic lifestyle once practiced here, as well as glorious panoramic views of vineyards and rugged landscapes. Today, visitors can explore the interpretive center to learn about the region’s religious and viticultural heritage. Plan to combine your visit with a hike or local wine tasting for a fuller experience of La Morera de Montsant’s charm.
