Palau Güell - Barcelona

The Palau Güell is a stunning residence, located at Nou de la Rambla 3 E - 08001, 

Barcelona and  was built between 1886 and 1890 to the big Güell family, is an example of 

Gaudí’s architectural style. The great innovation is in the  parabolic arches in the entrance, 

enhanced by typically extravagant Modernist grilles. Inside, the grand hall is without doubt 

the most remarkable room of the house, with its parabolic cupola pierced with small 

openings that allow light to filter through, giving the impression of the night sky!

Attractions in Barcelona - Parc Güell


Parc Güell is a Municipal garden complex situated in Gràcia district. The entrance is free of charge.


This magic place half-way between reality and fantasy, looks onto two quite unique mushroom-shaped buildings straight out of the fairy tale book. A stairway headed by a dragon made up of ingenious mosaics leads to the Hall of a hundred columns On top of the hall there is a circular square which offers an extraordinary view over the town, surrounded by the famous and never-ending undulating bank where Gaudí's fantasy for colour knows no bounds.

The address is Olot 1 E - 08024 Barcelona.
