Create an itinerary including Casa Amatller
Fascinatingly geometric, Casa Amatller represents a prime example of the Modernisme architectural style. Considered one of the three most important buildings in Barcelona, the 20th-century structure features a pyramid-like roof and an interior lined with intricate columns and stained-glass windows. It was originally built for chocolatier Amatller Antoni Costa, and the ground floor of the residence has been restored to preserve the atmosphere of its first owner. Tours of the house are offered at specific times and for small groups; book tickets in advance or in the lobby of the building.

  • We enjoyed the house and all the details, especially the amount of furniture still in the home. You really got a sense of what it may have been like in its original time. Much more that the other...

  • I liked it, but Casa Batllo, next to it, is more beautiful:) I don't know how much it's worth visiting inside, and you can see the outside anyway.

  • Exquisitely maintained museum and house with many original pieces, did the 50 minute audio tour and learned a lot about the family and the property. Also got to try the chocolate at the end which was delicious.
  • Casa Amatller was not designed by Gaudí, but it is just unique and beautiful as any of his works. The exterior is memorable, and the inside is elegant. The museum tour is available, but you can always walk in at will to appreciate the gorgeous stained glass ceiling and eat some delicious chocolate sold on the first floor. You must include this house as a stop when visiting Casa Batlló.
  • Seemingly overshadowed by its next door neighbour (Gaudi's Casa Batllo), Casa Amatller is my favourite place in Barcelona. Former abode of a worldly chocolatier who was influenced by Islam, ancient Egypt, and the Orient, this house was home to a fascinating individual and just elicits intellectual curiosity. And the staff are great, and the attached chocolate shop is even greater! And gluten free chocolate!
  • Awesome place with super coffee shop “Fabotit” inside at the heart of Passeig de Gracia! Good offers for breakfast, but we were really crazy about smell of the chocolate: enormously sweet, delicious and great cup, served with toasted bread🥰 Highly recommend!
  • This building is located next to the famous Gaudi, Casa Batllo Building. It has a beautiful and unique architecture. I like the details used in the architecture of this place. After passing inside the building, you will reach the backyard. There is a coffee shop there.
