La Pedrera: Gaudí's wave of stone

When it went up on the Passeig de Gràcia, Barcelona laughed at it and called it the quarry, La Pedrera. Gaudí's last great house is a single undulating block of stone without a straight wall, and its roof is one of the strangest places in the city.

    What to see at La Pedrera

    1. The roof

      A landscape of stairs and paths among chimneys and ventilation towers shaped like helmeted warriors, with views to the Sagrada Família.

    2. The attic

      Gaudí's catenary arches of brick, like the ribs of a whale, now an exhibition on his work.

    3. The flat

      An apartment furnished as a well-off Barcelona family would have had it in the early twentieth century.

    4. The courtyards

      Two great open wells, painted and lit from above, around which the whole building is arranged.

    Before you go

    • The building suggests coming early in the morning or after four in the afternoon, the quietest hours.
    • The roof is the best of the visit: choose a dry, clear day if you can.
    • The night visits light up the roof with a projection. They are a different experience from the day visit.
    • Casa Batlló is a few minutes down the Passeig de Gràcia.

    The quarry that became Gaudí's last house

    Pere Milà and his wife, Roser Segimon, commissioned an apartment block on the corner of the Passeig de Gràcia and the Carrer de Provença, and Gaudí built it between 1906 and 1912. It was the last private house he designed before giving himself to the Sagrada Família.

    There are no load-bearing walls inside: the floors rest on columns and the front is hung on a frame, so that every flat could be laid out freely around two great courtyards.

    The building is now owned by a Catalan cultural foundation, which opens the roof, the attic and one of the flats to visitors. It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage site of Gaudí's works.
