Garden

The garden is one of the most iconic spaces of Casa Vicens, as the entire home is built around it.

Currently, the garden at Casa Vicens is a small oasis located in the centre of the neighbourhood of GrĂ cia, but when the work was originally finished, the garden was larger. The garden also featured a waterfall beneath a monumental parabolic archway and two fountains, also designed by GaudĂ­ that ensured a refreshing atmosphere in the home.

The current garden, measuring 300 m2, includes numerous flowerbeds, potted plants and a landscaped roof. The original late 19th century has been recreated here, respecting the trees that were found at the house, such as the oak that reaches up to nearly 8 metres tall, and the 12-metre-tall magnolia. The others were planted while the house was being refurbished, following the planting guidelines of the time.

Nowadays our garden it is a small oasis located in the centre of the GrĂ cia neighbourhood, but when GaudĂ­ designed it, it had larger dimensions and featured a large waterfall and a circular fountain which refreshed the covered porch.

The house where nature becomes architecture

At Casa Vicens, GaudĂ­ succeeds in bringing the garden's nature into the house, applying it on walls and ceilings, thereby creating a strong connection between the interior and exterior spaces.
