Barcelona´s modernism

<< Pavillions Güell
Location: Av. Pedralbes, s/n.
Metro station:  Palau Reial

Pavillions Güell, Barcelona

Few meters away from the "Palau Reial" raises this pavilion made for the Güell family, project in part done by Antonio Gaudí, to whom they gave the entrance gate, some interior doors and the caretaker's lodge.


But its most important contribution was the dragon form metalic entrance door.

Pavillions Güell, Barcelona
This building mixes the catalan (with gothic roots), with the oriental tradition (false mosaic).

*TIP:
This place can not be visited inside, the gate thought can be pictured from the street, this gate is a fantastic "model" for photographers and picture lovers!
1884-1887
