Led by a knowledgeable local guide fluent in English, you'll traverse the house's various chambers, gaining insight into the lifestyle of the Batlló family at the turn of the 20th century. Explore the main floor, featuring a magnificent hall offering panoramic views of Passeig de Gràcia, and take note of the open spaces designed to harness natural light, minimizing the need for artificial illumination during daylight hours.

Guided tour of La Pedrera

At the conclusion of the visit, your guide will lead you to La Pedrera, where you'll begin the tour by exploring its impressive stone façade. The undulating design, paired with wrought iron railings, evokes imagery of a seabed teeming with seaweed.

Inside La Pedrera, your guide will introduce you to two captivating interior courtyards: the "Patio de las Flores," adorned with mural paintings, and the "Patio de las Mariposas," featuring a stunning representation of a butterfly. You'll then access the rooftop adorned with a dragon sculpture through the inner courtyard, where shades of blue dominate, offering a sensation of being submerged under the sea when peering through the glass.
