It is recommended to allow at least 45 minutes to an hour to explore the house, including the Modernist façade, the interiors, and any current exhibition. If you choose a guided tour, it may last up to an hour and a half, allowing for a deeper experience without rushing.
Built in 1904 by the architect Joan Amigó in the Modernist style, Casa Miquel Blanxart was the residence of a textile industrialist and represents the economic prosperity of Granollers at the beginning of the 20th century. Today it is a protected cultural asset that symbolizes Catalan industrial heritage and hosts exhibitions on local history.
Spring (March to May) or autumn (September to November) are ideal because of the mild weather and fewer tourists, although it operates year-round. Choose weekday mornings to avoid crowds and enjoy the natural light that highlights the Modernist details of the façade.
The house offers partial accessibility, with ramps at the main entrance and an elevator to the first floor, but some historic areas with stairs may not be fully adapted. If you need assistance, contact +34 938 42 75 00 in advance to make arrangements; the City Council promotes inclusion in its cultural sites.
Nearby you will find the Granollers Museum, just a 10-minute walk away, which explores local history, and the Basilica of Saint Mary, an example of Gothic architecture. You can also stroll through Font del Lleó Park; to plan your visit, go to www.granollers.cat/turisme.
