Twenty years of Gaudí in a single day
Palau Güell (1886-1890) was the commission that launched Antoni Gaudí's career: a town palace for his patron Eusebi Güell, a step away from La Rambla. This is the young Gaudí, still tied to the taste of his day, but already working with parabolic arches, a central hall that rises like a shaft of light, and a rooftop of trencadís-clad chimneys that looks like a lunar garden.
Casa Milà (1906-1912) sits at the other end of his career: his last civil work before he gave himself entirely to the Sagrada Família. By then Gaudí was imitating nothing. The stone facade rolls like a cliff face, the Espai Gaudí attic stands on 270 brick catenary arches, and the rooftop turns the chimneys into stone sentinels. Both buildings are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Visiting them on the same day is the clearest way to see that development: the dark, vertical palace in the Raval in the morning, the bright, curving house in the Eixample in the afternoon. No other Gaudí combo tells that story as well.
Palau Güell and La Pedrera: how they differ
These are not two versions of the same building but two eras of the same architect. This table sums up what you'll see in each.
| Palau Güell | Casa Milà - La Pedrera | |
|---|---|---|
| Period | 1886-1890, early work | 1906-1912, last civil work |
| Type of building | Private palace for Eusebi Güell | Apartment building for Pere Milà and Roser Segimon |
| District | El Raval, beside La Rambla | Eixample, Passeig de Gràcia 92 |
| Most memorable | Central hall with perforated dome and trencadís chimneys | Rooftop of warrior chimneys and the Espai Gaudí attic |
| Character | Dark, vertical, almost Gothic | Bright, undulating, no straight lines |
| Visit length | 1-1.5 hours | 1.5-2 hours |
| Closing days | Closed on Mondays | Open daily (9:00-17:30 for the daytime visit) |

How to fit both buildings into one day
The order matters less than the time slots. This plan dodges the busiest hours at both buildings and still leaves you time for an unhurried lunch.
1. Book La Pedrera for 9:00
The first slot of the morning is the quietest: groups start arriving from about 10:30. In 1.5-2 hours you'll see the courtyards, the period apartment, Espai Gaudí and the rooftop in the best light of the day for photos.
2. Head down towards La Rambla
Metro L3 from Diagonal to Liceu, about 15 minutes with no changes. If you'd rather walk, Passeig de Gràcia and La Rambla bring you to Palau Güell in 35-40 minutes, straight past Casa Batlló.
3. Eat in the Raval or the Gòtic
There are dozens of options around Palau Güell and the Boqueria market. Book the Palau slot for early afternoon and you can eat without watching the clock.
4. Palau Güell in the afternoon
Allow 1-1.5 hours: the main floor, the central hall with its star-pierced dome and the rooftop of coloured chimneys. You come out two minutes from La Rambla, ready to carry on through the old town.
Tip: if your free day falls on a Monday, flip the week around: Palau Güell closes on Mondays, but La Pedrera opens every day, including the night visit and the sunrise and sunset visits.
What to know before you buy the combo
One purchase, two bookings
At checkout you pick a date and time slot for each building separately. They can be on the same day or on different days: the combo doesn't force you to do it all in one go.
The day's price in the widget
The combo price changes with date and availability. Check it in the widget on this page; the official reference for a standalone La Pedrera ticket is from €29, per lapedrera.com. All the individual fares are on our prices page.
Ticket on your phone
You get the tickets by email straight away and show them on screen at each entrance. At La Pedrera the visitor entrance is on the Provença corner; arrive 10-15 minutes before your slot.
No box-office queue
Timed online tickets go straight to the access control at both buildings. To get the most out of that at La Pedrera, read our tricks for skip-the-line tickets.
Children and reduced rates
At La Pedrera children aged 0 to 11 go free according to the official site, and there is a concession rate for students and over-65s: the details are on our student tickets page.
Rooftops and weather
Both rooftops are open to the sky and can close in rain or strong wind. If the forecast looks bad, put the interiors first and move your slot if your fare allows it.
Addresses, metro and real travel times
Casa Milà - La Pedrera is at Passeig de Gràcia 92, on the corner with Provença, in the Eixample. The metro stop is Diagonal (L3 and L5), a minute away on foot; FGC Provença, buses 7, 22, 24 and V17 and Renfe Passeig de Gràcia (a 10-minute walk) also work. The seasonal opening hours have their own page: the daytime visit runs from 9:00 to 17:30.
Palau Güell is on Carrer Nou de la Rambla, in the Raval, a few steps from La Rambla. The handy metro stop is Liceu (L3). From La Pedrera it's a direct 15-minute trip: six stops on the green line with no changes. Remember the one weak point in the plan: it closes on Mondays.
With children or a tight schedule, the metro is the obvious choice. If the afternoon is kind, the walk back up La Rambla, across Plaça Catalunya and along Passeig de Gràcia is a very Barcelona way to end the day: you'll pass Casa Batlló and the Illa de la Discòrdia, the block that showcases Catalan Modernisme by Gaudí, Domènech i Montaner and Puig i Cadafalch.
Would another second building suit you better? If the Raval is out of your way, the La Pedrera + Sant Pau combo takes you to Domènech i Montaner's Art Nouveau site next to the Sagrada Família, with the same one-purchase mechanics.
La Pedrera + Palau Güell combo — FAQ
What does the La Pedrera + Palau Güell combo ticket include?
General admission to Casa Milà - La Pedrera (courtyards, period apartment, Espai Gaudí attic and rooftop, with videoguide) and entry to Palau Güell beside La Rambla. Each building is visited on its own date and time slot, both booked in the same purchase.
How much does the combo cost?
It depends on the date and on availability at each building, so check the day's price in the booking widget on this page. For reference, a standalone La Pedrera ticket starts at €29 according to the official site lapedrera.com; the combo is designed to work out cheaper than two separate tickets.
Can I visit both buildings on the same day?
Yes, and it's the usual plan: La Pedrera on the 9:00 slot and Palau Güell in the early afternoon. The two are about 15 minutes apart on the L3 (Diagonal → Liceu). Leave at least 3 hours between the two slots so you're not rushing.
Is Palau Güell open on Mondays?
No, it closes on Mondays. La Pedrera does open every day. If Monday is all you have, spend it at La Pedrera and save Palau Güell for another day, or look at the alternative combo with Sant Pau.
Do I have to book a date and time for both buildings?
Yes. Both run on capacity limits and time slots. When you buy the combo you select a slot for each one; you can put them on the same day or on different days of your trip.
How do I get from La Pedrera to Palau Güell?
Metro L3 from Diagonal to Liceu, about 15 minutes, then 2 minutes on foot along Carrer Nou de la Rambla. Walking takes 35-40 minutes down Passeig de Gràcia and La Rambla, a stroll that passes Casa Batlló.
Is Palau Güell worth it if I'm already seeing La Pedrera?
Yes, exactly because they look nothing alike. Palau Güell is the Gaudí of 1886-1890: a dark, vertical palace with a dome pierced like a starry sky. La Pedrera is the Gaudí of 1906-1912, by then completely free. Together they tell the architect's full story.
