Traveler reviews
Ann Simonova
★★★★★2 months agoCasa Vicens is an incredible place to visit and a must-see for anyone interested in architecture. Knowing that this was Gaudí’s first house project makes it even more special. You can already see his unique style and creativity in every detail. The colors, shapes, and design elements are beautiful and full of character. It’s fascinating to see where Gaudí’s artistic journey began. Highly recommended when visiting Barcelona.

★★★★★3 months agoI’m so happy I visited this house. I had a spare few hours to meander about by myself and I decided to visit this Gaudí piece. I particularly love this color of red and the tiles were wonderful! I definitely recommend if you love to appreciate this style of art! Not so much a place for all of the people who want to capture the most touristy things but definitely a place for those who are looking for a peaceful ambiance away from the hustle and bustle of la Rambla. Aside from the lovely house, I enjoyed walking back south through Gracia. Honestly Barcelona will see me again I loved every bit of it!
