THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOUR VISIT TO PARK GÜELL
Originally envisioned as an upscale urban project for Barcelona’s elite, Park Güell witnessed the sale of only two out of its originally projected sixty homes. Eventually, in 1926, three years following Gaudí’s passing, it metamorphosed into a public space. Its design mirrors the fusion of nature and architecture, emblematic of the architect’s vision, featuring vibrant mosaics and organic structures seamlessly blending into the surroundings.
A guided tour of Park Güell unveils the genius of Gaudí’s mind and the historical tapestry woven into this site. Guides divulge captivating details about the park’s conception, Gaudí’s life, and the historical facets surrounding its creation.
