Montferri is a village with a rich winemaking tradition, as can be seen from the vineyards that surround it.
In the oldest part of the village, nestled around the parish church of Sant Bartomeu (a Local Cultural Heritage Site), some houses still preserve Gothic arches. Here we also find Rocamora Castle (BCIN), which was built to defend the frontier area along the Gaià River from Saracen attacks.
The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Montserrat (BCIL) is one of the most representative works of architecture in the Alt Camp region. Built in the Modernisme style, it was commissioned to the Tarragona-born architect Josep M. Jujol, a collaborator of Antoni Gaudí. The building is shaped like a ship pointing towards Montserrat and is filled with Jujol-inspired details waiting to be discovered, reflecting the distinctive design and originality that characterised the architect’s work.
At the top of the Tossa Grossa ridge, south of the village and at an altitude of 376 metres, stands the Tower of Montferri, also known as the Torre del Moro (a National Cultural Heritage Site). Around the village, there are two dry-stone hut routes, the Gori Route and the Arboçars Route, which have recently been designated Local Cultural Heritage Sites (BCIL).
