Catalan modernisme

Gaudí, Domènech and the colors of an era

Overview

An architectural revolution born in late 19th century Catalonia: organic forms, vibrant tiles and a unique world heritage.

What to see

  • Sagrada Família
  • Park Güell
  • Casa Batlló & La Pedrera
  • Palau de la Música
  • Hospital Sant Pau

Visitor tips

Buy a combined Casa Batlló + La Pedrera ticket to save. Visit Hospital Sant Pau in the morning — it's spectacular and less crowded. Don't skip the Palau de la Música, on a tour or for a concert. Reus, the 'modernisme capital', is worth a side trip.
