In 1900, Eusebi Guell commissioned renowned architect Antoni Gaudi to begin designing and building a modernist estate for wealthy families in the Muntanya Pelada zone. Its location was the biggest draw, with stunning natural grounds that provided breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea. Gaudi was allowed to build 60 triangular estates but only ended up completing two as the sales of the plots undersold. By 1922 it was opened as a municipal park before eventually opening in 1963 as an artistic monument and public park. Today, guests can take a 1-hour guided tour through this iconic park, exploring how Gaudi blended architecture, sustainability, harmony, and nature.
