Ten Reasons to Visit La Pedrera

Why is La Pedrera TOP Gaudí? Here are ten reasons to discover this Modernist jewel by the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí:

• It is Antoni Gaudí’s last completed work and the ultimate expression of his architectural style.
• The architect innovated without abandoning tradition. He sought to surpass established models and developed a new style that culminated in La Pedrera, a unique and innovative building thanks to its construction techniques, the spectacular façade and its interior design solutions.
• It boasts Barcelona’s finest rooftop: the Warriors’ Rooftop, offering spectacular views of the city and one of its most evocative spaces.
• The Gaudí Exhibition, located in the attic, is the only interpretation centre in Barcelona dedicated to Gaudí’s complete works, where you can discover his inspirations and working methods.
• You can explore a recreated apartment featuring original Gaudí elements that shaped the interiors of La Pedrera, while learning about the lifestyle of a Barcelona bourgeois family in the early 20th century.
• It is the only visitable Gaudí building still inhabited by residents. Three tenants currently live there, and some families have been there for more than 70 years.
• Thanks to its privileged location on Passeig de Gràcia, where Gaudí created the most impressive stone façade on Barcelona’s famous shopping avenue.
• It is a masterpiece inspired by nature, where visitors can experience Gaudí’s natural inspirations in the attic, the Flower Courtyard and the Butterfly Courtyard.
• Casa Milà’s rooftop is a true cinematic rooftop, where chimneys and stairwells are transformed into sculptures.
• It is the driving force behind the Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera, and your ticket helps support social, cultural and environmental programmes that benefit more than half a million people every year.
