Casa Vicens Tickets
Gaudí's first house in Barcelona
Casa Vicens (Vicens House) does not look like the other houses made by Antoni Gaudí like the Casa Milà or Casa Batlló. This was his first important commission, the inspiration is not yet naturalist, but already the genius of the architect shows in every detail of the building as well outside as inside. A work of youth that foreshadows what will become, a few years later, Catalan Modernism. A major work by Gaudi, the 8th and last to be rewarded by UNESCO!
The Casa Vicens was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2005 as "Works of Antoni Gaudí" in conjunction with the Güell Park, the Güell Colony Crypt, the Güell Palace, the Casa Vicens, the Nativity Facade and The crypt of the Sagrada Família, Casa Batlló and Casa Milà ..

What to see in Casa Vicens ?
The orientalist inspiration of Casa Vicens Barcelona
In the 19th century, exoticism from the East became fashionable throughout Europe, this fascination is reflected in all artistic expressions, a fascination strongly linked to the romantic movement. When Gaudí received the order, he was completely absorbed by this movement, even though he had already hinted at the same sensitivity. Taking advantage of Manuel Vicens Montaner's profession as a ceramist, he exploited all the advantages offered by his orientalist knowledge. The use of tiles, plaster, but also arabesques, coffered ceilings, marquetry, fountains and basins. The style of this house may recall the so-called neo-Mudejar in reference to the use of these artistic building materials used by Muslims for constructions built in southern Spain, especially in Seville, Toledo and Zaragoza since the twelfth century.

-
What's included with this ticket?
On this same page or on the ticket reservation page - the services included with the purchase of your ticket are systematically indicated. See the "Included" or “Inclusions” section for details.
-
Why do I have to specify a date when buying a ticket?
When you are asked to specify the date of your visit, it is because the monument or service you have chosen to visit also requests it. Most of the time, this date allows tourist sites to limit the number of visitors and therefore to make the visits more fluid. Please note that if you are not asked to specify the time of your visit, this means that you can arrive at any time to visit the site - while respecting the visiting hours of the site in question.
-
Why do I have to specify a date and time when purchasing a ticket?
Same as before, but here in addition to the date - the monument or service you have chosen to visit - also asks you to specify the time you wish to visit. Once again it is a matter of limiting the number of visitors so that your visit is as pleasant as possible.
-
With a ticket - date and time requested - do I have to arrive at the exact time or can I be a little late for my visit?
On the ticket that you will receive by email after your purchase, it is normally specified how much time - in addition to the scheduled time - you are granted in order not to lose your visit. Please note, for example, that a visit to Park Güell entitles you to entry 30 minutes after the stated time. The Sagrada Familia ticket indicates a time slot of 15 minutes. It is therefore important to respect this time slot. If the ticket does not specify a time slot, then the timetable must be respected.
-
Why are we talking about combined tickets?
We talk about combined tickets in some of our offers when they offer, for example, two places to visit in Barcelona. The ticket itself is not combined. It is two separate tickets that we combine to make a more economical and attractive offer. You will receive these two tickets by email. As they are separate you can use them according to your preference when the tickets are open or according to the dates and times you choose.
-
How to benefit from a discount for example according to age or for students?
When purchasing your ticket, discounts are always indicated when available. For example, there are regular discounts for children in different age groups, ranging from free for very young children to discounts for seniors over 65 years of age.

enjoy!
Indeed the pass Les Three Houses of Gaudí is not available for purchase at the moment as renovation work is in progress at Casa Batlló. The pass will be available for sale again as soon as the renovation work is completed.
Thank you for your patience.
I can't manage to book tickets for the pass "3 houses of Gaudi".
Any reason for this?
thank you
