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!
