Gaudí: House Museum

The Gaudí House Museum in Park Güell, which was officially opened on 28 September 1963, was the residence of Antoni Gaudí i Cornet (1852-1926) from 1906 until late-1925. Today, this private centre is open to the public to give the visitor a more intimate glimpse of the Catalan architect.

 

The house conserves both the memory of Gaudí and many examples of furniture and other objects that he designed. Crucial to forming an idea of how the great Catalan architect worked, these works also illustrate the craft production system in Catalonia during the Art Nouveau period. The original purpose of the building – that of acting as a “show house” for Park Güell – gives the site added value. Although it is a public space today, Park Güell, one of Gaudí’s major undertakings, was originally planned as a private residential area.
