Casa Vicens: Gaudí?s First Major Work



Casa Vicens is the first masterpiece of Antoni Gaudí and sowed the seeds of later works.

Built between 1883 and 1885 as a summer house for the Vicens family, here he showcased his unparalleled talent. Declared Unesco World Heritage in 2005
Work began on the house in 1883 when Gaudí was just 31 years old and it was completed in 1885. The building is considered an important historical prelude to Catalan modernism.
In 2014 Casa Vicens was bought by MoraBanc & Amura Capital investing ?4 million to bring the building back to its former glory.  The restoration process began in 2015 and fully conserves all the original features and rooms. The figure for the actual purchase of the building is undisclosed.
