Commissioned by industrial tycoon Eusebi Güell, this opulent urban mansion completed in 1890 represents one of Antoni Gaudí's earliest architectural triumphs in Barcelona's El Raval. The facade features dramatic parabolic arches and exquisite wrought-iron work. Inside, a soaring three-story central hall is capped by an acoustic dome perforated to resemble a starlit night sky, while the roof terrace boasts 20 whimsical mosaic chimneys.
