Activity itinerary

Basilica de la Sagrada Familia (Pass by)

Explore Gaudí’s unfinished masterpiece from the outside, reading its façades as a visual storey. We focus on symbolism, design choices, and how the temple reflects Barcelona’s identity across generations.

La Pedrera - Casa Milà (Pass by)

Discover Gaudí's radical break from convention through its flowing stone façade and twisted iron balconies. We examine how nature, structure, and symbolism merge into a new architectural language.

Casa Batlló (Pass by)

Study Gaudí’s most imaginative facade, inspired by nature and myth. From bone-like balconies to the dragon-shaped roof, we decode the symbols that transformed Passeig de Gracia.

Casa Amatller (Pass by)

Puig i Cadafalch’s most iconic house blends Gothic references with bourgeois ambition. Its stepped facade and sculpted details reveal how Barcelona’s elite shaped Modernism.

Casa Lleó Morera (Pass by)

Domenech i Montaner’s most ornate work layers sculpture, mosaic, and stained glass into one unified design. Every detail reflects status, craft, and Modernist confidence.

Placa Catalunya

  • 5m
Plaça Catalunya stands where the old city once ended and the modern Eixample began. From here we follow Portal de l’Angel, tracing the line of a former Roman gate turned vibrant urban corridor.

Els 4 Gats (Pass by)

Once the meeting place of artists and intellectuals, including a young Picasso, Dali, and Gaudi. Here we discuss the bohemian spirit that helped shape Barcelona’s modern identity.

Plaça del Vuit de Març

  • 5m
The last remaining fragments of the aqueduct that once supplied water to Roman Barcino. A reminder that beneath today’s streets lies a carefully engineered ancient city.

The World Comes To Life With Each Kiss

  • 10m
From afar, a kiss. Up close, thousands of small photographs of personal freedom. A contemporary reflection on memory, identity, and collective expression.

Plaça Nova

  • 5m
At Placa Nova, Picasso’s mural faces the Roman defensive towers that once marked the entrance to Barcino, while the Cathedral rises just beyond, ready for your next stop.

Barcelona Cathedral (Pass by)

In the Old Town, the Cathedral anchors the medieval city. We focus on the contrast between the 13th-century Gothic church and its later neo-Gothic facade from the end of the 19th-century.

Casa de l'Ardiaca

  • 10m
Built partly with stones from the 1st-century Roman wall, this former Archdeacon’s house reveals how medieval Barcelona literally reused its ancient past.

Plaça de Sant Felip Neri

  • 10m
Beauty and tragedy coexist here, offering a powerful reminder of Barcelona’s history. A quiet square marked by Civil War scars. Gaudí was on his way here when he suffered the accident that led to his death.

Pont del Bisbe

  • 5m
The Pont del Bisbe looks medieval but was built in the 20th century. This neo-Gothic bridge reflects Barcelona’s desire to shape its past. Look for the skull beneath the arch.

MUHBA Temple d'August

  • 10m
Four surviving columns from the Roman temple to Emperor Augustus build in 1 a.C. Hidden inside a courtyard, they reveal the monumental scale of ancient Barcino.

Plaça de Sant Jaume

  • 10m
Barcelona’s political heart since Roman times. From the ancient forum to today’s Catalan Government and City Hall, power has stood here for two millennia.

Plaça del Rei

  • 10m
The medieval royal square where kings received ambassadors and Columbus met the Catholic Monarchs in 1493 upon his return from "India". Feudal Barcelona unfolds in this stone setting.
