Park Güell in Barcelona

Park Güell is a stunning creation by renowned Spanish architect Antoni Gaudí. Located in the hills of Barcelona, Park Güell is the embodiment of fantasies in which architecture and natural elements are closely intertwined.

But it wasn't always like that..

The park's name comes from the surname of its first owner, Eusebio Güell. At the end of the 19th century, he bought a large plot of land with the aim of building an elite residential complex on it. When he commissioned Gaudí to design it, he did not yet know that, unfortunately, his dream was not destined to come true. Rumour has it that the reasons for this were certain difficulties related to transportation and the exclusivity of the project. Construction began in 1900 and ended in 1914 without ever fulfilling its purpose.

However, Barcelona gained another attraction to add to its collection: Güell's heirs donated the park to the city, which opened it as a municipal park in 1926. Güell's house became a museum in 1963 and was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1984.

The unique Park Güell

This place delights both adults and children, becoming a unique journey into the world of fantasy.

At the entrance to the park stand two fairy-tale houses that resemble gingerbread cottages. And the mosaic lizard, known locally as ‘el dragon’, has become the most photographed symbol of the park, welcoming guests at the foot of the majestic staircase.

The park's main terrace is framed by a wavy bench decorated with bright mosaics and offers breathtaking views of Barcelona.

The Column Hall, also known as the ‘Hall of a Hundred Columns’ (although there are actually 84 columns), impresses with its majestic architecture. Below, hidden beneath the columns, are bizarre grottoes, and the ceiling is decorated with mosaic medallions. A very unusual place!
