The park built in the years 1900 to 1914 and designed by Antoni Gaudí. The park is a fantasy land that combines the natural and the man-made. It was originally conceived as a residential garden city and built for Gaudí’s patron, Eusebi Güell Bacigalupi, a textile manufacturer who had a keen interest in the arts and helped develop the architect’s career. But the project was too radical for its time and, as a real estate project, was a great failure. Only 2 houses were built against the planned 60. The property was sold to the city of Barcelona in 1922, and today it remains an amazing public park and World Heritage monument. Don't miss it when You visit Barcelona, Gaudí's creativity is unbelievable!
