Description
Casa Vicens is one of the first modernist houses designed by Antoní Gaudí. It was commissioned as a summer retreat for Manel Vicens i Montaner, a distinguished stockbroker at the end of the 19th century.
The building powerfully holds your attention thanks to its imaginative decoration. In the design process, Gaudí was greatly inspired by the forms of nature, but also in other historic styles such as Moorish and Byzantine art. The building also has a very prominent Andalusian aesthetic with various allusions to iconic landmarks in Granada, including the Alhambra and the Palacio de Generalife.
The mansion was declared a UNESCO Heritage Site in 2005, also has various Eastern-style-inspired rooms, where you can observe Persian architectural forms.
You'll visit the museum on your own, so you can stop for as long as you wish in the rooms you like best. In addition, the ticket includes an audio guide available in up to 13 different languages.
