A visit to La Pedrera by day covers to different museum areas – the Espai Gaudí and the Pedrera Apartment – which, together with the Provença and Passeig de Gràcia Courtyard, the Exhibition Room and the Roof-Terrace, make up the tour of the building.
The Espai Gaudí, in the attic, offers a broad view of the Gaudí´s work, showing the most basic traits of his clearly visual and empirical way of understanding architecture through models, audiovisuals and objects.
The Pedrera Apartment recreates the home and life of a Barcelona bourgeois family of the first third of the twentieth century. It is also now possible to visit the former residence of the Milà family, which houses the Temporary Exhibition Room.
The Roof-Terrace, an unique space charged with artistic and symbolic force, was designed to fulfil a functional role and bears no semblance to the architecture of its time. From there you will admire spectacular views of Barcelona.
The audio guide, included in La Pedrera entrance ticket , provides information to the visitor about the visitable areas and the main features of the building and the architect Antoni Gaudí.
After roughly 1.5 hours, your audio tour ends, leaving you free to leave or continue exploring La Pedrera.
