Casa Milà (La Pedrera): Gaudí's Organic Apartment Building Guide
Casa Milà, also known as La Pedrera (the Stone Quarry), is a unique apartment building in Barcelona designed by Antoni Gaudí. It's a UNESCO World Heritage site and a prime example of Gaudí's organic and innovative architectural style. Casa Milà was built between 1906 and 1912 for the Milà family. Gaudí's design is characterized by its undulating facade, its rooftop terrace with its sculptural chimneys, and its innovative use of natural light and ventilation. Visitors can explore the building's interior, including the Espai Gaudí (Gaudí Space) in the attic, which showcases Gaudí's architectural techniques. You can also visit the rooftop terrace for stunning views of Barcelona.
