Carrer de Bellesguard, 20

The Bellesguard Tower is Antoni Gaudí 's most unknown and personal work, erected on land that holds more than two thousand years of history. Gaudí built a castle halfway between Modernism and Gothic, in homage to the medieval past of the estate, which served as his royal and papal residence.

A visit without crowds and of great quality, where you can discover all the history and secrets hidden in Bellesguard, the historical figures and events that have taken place here, the legends, anecdotes, changes in light, acoustics, the history of the different owners who have lived there and from the terraces, the magnificent views over the city.

Bellesguard offers two types of visits:

  • Guided tour with one of our guides. Available on weekends in three languages: Catalan, Spanish, and English.
  • And the audio-guided tour is available in six languages: Catalan, Spanish, English, French, Italian and Russian.

In addition to the unique architecture, the visit allows you to enjoy the tranquil gardens surrounding the tower, as well as discreet corners where you can pause and contemplate the work at a leisurely pace. The tower's interior is striking for its symbolism, the natural light that enters through stained-glass windows and openings, and the special acoustics that add magic to the experience.

Bellesguard also organizes specific cultural events and themed activities that delve into the figure of Gaudí and the estate's medieval past, transforming it into a vibrant space open to the public. It's, in short, a visit that connects art, history, and landscape, leaving a lasting impression thanks to its beauty and serenity.
