How long does it take to travel from Manresa to Barcelona by train?

I am going to Spain for a trip and I would like to know if the two cities are close.

it takes 12 years

It takes approx 90 minutes. It's the train direction > Montserrat.
When buying your ticket, just make sure that the train is continuing on to Manresa.

Fotyfive Minutes to one hour.This same train takes one by Montserrat., another great place to visit.

I went from Barcelona to Montserrat the other day and the train made little over an hour. Since Manresa is a bit farther, I guess 90 minutes is a good estimation.

But the cities are pretty close, the distance between them is ~60 km, it's just that the train makes very frequent stops.

The Regional train takes 1 hour and 20 minutes.
