Palau Güell was one of the first major commissions carried out by Gaudí, near the beginning of his brilliant career. Eusebi Güell, an industrialist, politician and patron of the arts, commissioned the construction of a the mansion as the extension of his family home on Carrer Nou de la Rambla. It served as the Güell-López family residence until they moved to Parc Güell. From 1990 on, various refurbishing projects have been carried out, the latest of which began in 2005 and was completed in 2011.
Palau Güell offers guided tours to help you discover all the secrets of this beautiful home. Following a route through the different rooms and areas, from the stables in the basement to the chimneys on the rooftop, you'll discover a wealth of ornamental details hidden in the building as well as its origins, history and use as a home for the Güell family over 100 years ago.
