Full description

Casa Milà was controversial when it was finished in 1912; locals nicknamed it ‘the stone quarry’. With a guide at your side you’ll understand why it now counts among Gaudí’s masterpieces: a facade with no load-bearing walls, courtyards that pull daylight deep into the building and a period apartment that shows how the bourgeoisie lived.

The tour climbs to the attic, with its ribbed brick arches, and then out onto the rooftop, where sculpted chimneys and stairwell towers frame views of the Sagrada Família.
