Sant Pere de Casserres is one of the most important monuments of Catalan Romanesque Architecture, being the only monastery of the Benedictine order founded in the district of Osona.
The entrance doorway is located right at the opposite end, in the south-west corner. It is opened in a wall at right angles to the facade and has been rebuilt in modern times on abutments, making use of the old masonry.
It has a round arch and as next to it a kind of niche leading to the kitchen and below, which can still be seen the original outlet for water carried to the gully along a rough stone channel.
We will spend some days talking about this unique building, you can't get out !
