Park Güell, Barcelona

It was conceived as a residential town, inspired by English garden cities, although in the end the houses were never built and it remained a public park. It is regarded as one of the most important works of Modernism in the world, reflecting the artistic maturity of Gaudí, who displayed his full architectural genius by putting many of his innovative structural solutions into practice.

It was built on the Montaña Pelada, a concave stretch of land resembling an amphitheatre with views over Barcelona and the sea. Of the housing development originally planned, only two houses were built: one is the current Gaudí House Museum and the other is the Casa Trias.
