Photos of Güell Palace

The Palazzo Guell was built by Gaudí in 1888. It is the work that established Gaudí's status as the creator of the great atmosphere and space. It was selected as a world cultural heritage in 1984. The Palace of Guell was originally built as the residence of the industrial tycoon Guell. Gaudi fully took into account the needs of the occupants' private life and social interaction in the design, and incorporated many whimsical ideas in lighting and home design. The Güell family crest, cast in wrought iron between the arches, is extraordinary. The parabolic vault of the central hall is uniquely designed, and the vault and columns are clearly influenced by the Alhambra. The various chimneys are the ancestor of many bold chimney shapes designed by Gaudi. The broken porcelain collage method that Gaudí loved was also used here on a large scale for the first time, which is exquisite and spectacular. In addition, Palais Guell also has a long-term exhibition, which mainly displays the mosaics and iron works used by Gaudí in designing this luxurious residence, as well as decorative objects such as tables and chairs, sculptures, paintings, etc.
