Modernist hospital
Julie_T, Feb 2026
This site is very large. We were surprised how beautiful the restored buildings were. We visited for approximately 1 1/2 hours.
So worth a visit....take a break from Gaudi!!!

Oh my God this place is fantastic! I rate it right along with the Sagrada Familia and feel everyone should go see it. Originally a hospital, it's really beautiful, in Art Nouveau style (oh the tiles....just beautiful!!) with different pavilions for the different wards, male/female, different types of illness/condition. Clearly,some had fallen into disrepair and a project to renovate is ongoing, but some parts are simply stunning and the exhibition areas have really good information. In the central courtyards you can sit, and for us at this time of year there were orange trees heavy with fruit all around, plus other lovely plants eg lavender. Barcelona isn't only Gaudi!!!!
Wonderful colourful work from Lluís Domènech i Montaner
