Casa Batlló
Barcelona, Spain
About This Activity
Casa Batlló is perhaps Gaudí's most theatrical building — the facade shimmers with blue and green mosaic tiles, balconies shaped like skulls, and a roof that ripples like a dragon's back. Inside, the light-well shifts from deep blue at the base to white at the top, creating an underwater effect. The standard ticket (€35) includes a SmartGuide audio tour and rooftop access; the Gold ticket (€45) adds VIP lounge access and skip-the-line priority. Located on the Manzana de la Discordia block alongside Domènech i Montaner's Casa Lleó Morera.
Seasonal note: Year-round; book in advance. Magic Nights events run on select evenings throughout the year.
