What you'll do
Discover Gaudí’s Crypt at Colonia Güell, just 20 minutes from Barcelona and explore the five permanent exhibitions bringing Spanish history to life.
This historic textile village dates back to 1890 and is one of Barcelona’s most important historic sites, showcasing the city's industrial heritage. It was founded by Eusebio Güell and an army of modernist architects who helped create, design, and structure this replica village with a true Catalan art-nouveau feel.
Step back in time and marvel at 19th-century modernist architecture as you wander through the streets of this old industrial town. Don’t miss some of the most impressive buildings, Ca l’Ordal, which represents a traditional Catalan country house, as well as Can Soler de la Torre, which was a former home of the Güell family themselves, dating back to the 17th century.
Colonia Güell & Gaudí’s Crypt highlights
Gaudí’s Crypt
Gaudí’s crypt is an important historic site, not only for its beauty but as a representation of all of Gaudí’s modernist styles – from the anti-geometric to the vibrant color palette. Gaudí even said it would have been a monumental model of the Sagrada Familia if the latter had been completed.
Exhibitions
Colonia Güell’s old cooperative has five permanent exhibitions – Industrial Colonies, The Mill, People, Colonia Güell, and Gaudí's church, all bringing to life the village, how people lived, and the life and works of the iconic architect.
Facts
The Crypt was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2005.
Güell and Gaudí became friends after meeting at the World Fair held in Paris in 1878 after Güell hadbeen impressed by Gaudí's work at the Spanish Pavilion.
