Casa Vicens Gaudí is offering 900 tickets at €9 to celebrate its ninth anniversary as a house museum open to the public

· Tickets go on sale on Monday 16 November at 10:00 a.m., exclusively on casavicens.org

Located in Vila de Gràcia and built between 1883 and 1885, Casa Vicens has become an unmissable attraction in Barcelona for anyone wishing to discover the origins of the work by the brilliant architect Antoni Gaudí. After more than 130 years as a private residence and following three years of restoration and refurbishment, Casa Vicens opened its doors to the public for the first time on 16 November 2017. 

A celebration within the Gaudí Year

The director of Casa Vicens, Emili Masferrer, emphasises the significance of this celebration: “We are celebrating Casa Vicens’ nine years as an open venue in the year that also marks the centennial of Gaudí’s death, which invites us to return to our roots: Casa Vicens is the seminal work where the architect first developed his architectural language. This celebration also reflects a robust private cultural management model that is committed to quality, community engagement and sustainability.”

The anniversary coincides with World Heritage Day, a particularly significant occasion for a building that forms part of the serial property Works of Antoni Gaudí, registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List for its outstanding universal value.

Designed as a summer residence for the stock and currency broker Manel Vicens i Montaner, Casa Vicens foreshadows the key elements of Gaudí’s architectural language. The ornamentation in the house draws inspiration from the surrounding nature, from the carnation-shaped motifs on its pottery to the palm fronds on the gate. This ornamentation is complemented by a masterful use of colour and perfectly integrated decorative arts.
