Casa Vicens of Gaudí

In the Gràcia district, behind a wrought-iron gate in the shape of palm leaves, lies the best kept secret: the striking and colorful building of Casa Vicens. This building was the first major design by Antoni Gaudi in Barcelona and part of the UNESCO World Heritage List. After completing this building, Gaudí won the elite of Barcelona with his distinctive style.

Casa Vicens, built between 1883 and 1889 is a mix of Mudejar and Spanish style and is spaciously covered with ceramic tiles and many ornaments. It was built as a summer house by order of Manuel Vicens i Montaner, a rich stock and currency broker.

Since 2018, Casa Vicens Barcelona can be visited again after a thorough renovation. The house is furnished as a museum, has a permanent exhibition that tells you more about the history of Casa Vicens and you can take a look at all the special areas of the building as well as the garden and the terrace.
