- 13 years ago
Take a tour of Casa Batlló in Barcelona, Spain – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions series by GeoBeats.
The curving exterior of Barcelona’s Casa Batllo astounds with its irregular beauty.
The building was designed in 1904 by the famous architect Antoni Gaudi.
Locals have nicknamed it the “house of bones” because of its bone-like pillars.
The building’s interiors are every bit as curvilinear as its façade.
Intended as a residence, the Casa now serves as a museum and event space.
Its sculptural roof is said to represent the battle of Saint George and the dragon.
Even the highest peaks of Casa Batllo show the finest of detail.
