Starting at the stunning Hospital Sant Pau, the world’s largest Art Nouveau site, you will see how architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner gave as much importance to aesthetics as functionality. Indeed, he firmly believed in the healing power of nature-inspired art and beauty, an approach found in Sant Pau’s every detail. The concept of a “beautiful hospital” is unique and thought-provoking by definition, but was even more spectacular in the context of industrial Barcelona.
Afterwards we will admire the wealth of detail of this forest-like temple, Guadi’s final work, which with its luminosity strives to crown the city with the promise of redemption. These two outstanding Modernist architects had two different architectural objectives, i.e. medical and religious, but in achieving their objectives were both guided by the highest sensitivity for nature, art, faith, religion and healing. Without a doubt, 3 hours of mesmerizing and unforgettable Art Nouveau immersion
