Overview
Casa Vicens was the first house that Gaudí designed and one of his most important works.
The architectural gem was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2005 and uses a variety of different materials, vibrant colors, and unique features.
Explore its impressive interiors and see the Neo-Mudéjar architecture up close. Head up to the second floor of the house to browse the permanent collection and discover more than 130 years of history. Learn all about Gaudí's intellectual influences, inspiration, and his projects prior to building the house. You'll also see a reproduction of the Reus manuscript, in which Gaudí wrote down everything from his accounts to his reflections on architecture.
Along with the permanent collection, there are temporary exhibitions throughout the year focussing on Spanish culture and art.
Facts
Antoni Gaudí i Cornet (1852- 1926) is one of the most noteworthy figures in universal architecture.
Casa Vicens is the first important commission Antoni Gaudí received and sowed the seeds of all his architectural work thereafter.
Surrealist mind-bending artist, Salvador Dalí, was a huge fan of Gaudi.

Casa Vicens
Monica ·The exposition about contemporary architects inside Casa Vicens is fabulous.
Interesting but other Gaudi houses are better
Marc ·Interesting but the other Gaudi sites are better. This is more a standard offering and other architects have degraded the design after Gaudi. Would only reccomend for hardcore architecture fans.
Schönes Gaudí Haus, morgens weniger überfüllt
Tami ·Casa Vicens ist ein wunderschönes Haus und ein echtes Highlight für alle, die Gaudís Architektur entdecken möchten. Am Morgen war es angenehm ruhig, sodass man die vielen besonderen Details ganz in Ruhe anschauen konnte. Der Audioguide ist sehr gut gemacht und in verschiedenen Sprachen verfügbar. Im Vergleich zu anderen Häusern von Gaudí ist Casa Vicens deutlich weniger überfüllt und dadurch besonders entspannt zu besichtigen. Sehr empfehlenswert!
Very Interesting

Worth the visit!
Jo78 ·Great place to visit! Not too many peoplezo yoy can take your time to soak it all in.
Perfect for a quick afternoon plan
Alan Silveyra ·I didn’t know about this interesting gem until this trip and the app. It was my last landmark visit and did not dis appoint, is not too crowded and it is very informative. It was a perfect afternoon plan before dinner around the Gràcia neighborhood.
