Aerial view over Passeig de Gràcia including La Pedrera

Both houses delight the boulevard yet differ in material and mood.

Pedrera (Casa Milà)

  • Stone waves, iron kelp, courtyards as lungs.
  • Rooftop guardians and spiral drums.

Batlló (Casa Batlló)

  • Ceramic scales, trencadís mosaics, dragon spine roof.
  • Color dominates; interiors are luminous.

Choosing Your Route

  • If you love structure: see Pedrera first.
  • If you love color: start with Batlló.
  • Ideally: visit both to grasp Gaudí’s range.
