One of the reasons that make Barcelona a different city is undoubtedly the works of Gaudí and the modernists.

Some sights are really unforgettable, such as the variations that may take the colours of Casa Batlló according to the time of year or the hour of the day.

For the modernist artist, colours are something as much important as the materials or design. Every detail counts in the composition of the work.

Modernism, or Arts Décos is an artistic movement of the beginning of the 20th century that influenced cities all around Europe.

In Barcelona, we can discover and enjoy it in a route that is not very long, but is rich in things to see.

We have included in our itinerary works from the most important architects of the moment, such as Puig i Cadafalch, Doménech Montaner, and of course Gaudí.
