Gaudí Express
Discover Gaudí's three masterpieces in 1 hour
- Sagrada FamíliaWelcome to the Sagrada Família, the life's work of Antoni Gaudí and the most iconic landmark in Barcelona. This monumental basilica, begun in 1882, is an architectural manifesto of Catalan Modernism, blending organic forms, deep Christian symbolism, and daring structural innovations.
- Casa BatllóThis is Casa Batlló, a dazzling jewel of Modernism located on the prestigious Passeig de Gràcia. Nicknamed the 'House of Bones' due to its skull-shaped balconies and femur-like columns, this work by Gaudí is an explosion of color and imagination.
- La PedreraYou are admiring Casa Milà, better known as 'La Pedrera', or the stone quarry, because of its raw and massive appearance. This last civil work by Antoni Gaudí, built between 1906 and 1912, is famous for its undulating stone facade and wrought-iron balconies with interlacing vegetal shapes.
