Discover La Pedrera in Barcelona. A unique experience to learn about its history and significance.
La Pedrera is usually open Monday to Sunday from 9:00 am to 6:30 pm (winter) and until 8:30 pm (summer), in addition to its night visits. It is located at 92 Passeig de Gràcia and you can easily get there by metro (Lines 3 and 5, Diagonal station) or bus. Check the official website for updated hours.
General admission is around €28 if you buy online, while tickets at the box office usually have an extra surcharge, so it is not free. There are reduced rates for students, seniors, and children, as well as special discounts for residents. I recommend buying your ticket in advance here: La Pedrera Tickets.
To enjoy the full experience, including the famous rooftop of the warriors and the period apartment, set aside between one hour and one and a half hours. It is the perfect amount of time to explore it calmly and listen to the explanations without rushing.
It is Antoni Gaudí's last civil work and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984 for its outstanding universal value. It represents the height of Gaudí's artistic maturity, standing out for its self-supporting façade and its complete break with the traditional architecture of straight lines.
The best time is first thing in the morning, right at opening time (9:00 am), or late in the afternoon. If you want a magical experience, consider the night visit 'La Pedrera Night Experience' to see the building with unique lighting.
Yes, the building is very well adapted and has lifts to reach all visitable floors. Although the original rooftop has many uneven levels, there is a special platform at the lift exit so you can enjoy the views without barriers.
You are in the heart of Modernism; just a few minutes' walk down Passeig de Gràcia you will find the spectacular Casa Batlló. You are also very close to the Antoni Tàpies Foundation and Barcelona's most exclusive shopping area.
Do not skip the 'Espai Gaudí' in the attic; it is where you will best understand the genius of the architect's catenary arches. Wear comfortable shoes for the rooftop and make sure your phone has battery for photos and for using our audio guides if you decide to complement your visit.
