SAINT PAUL'S HOSPITAL (Hospital de Sant Pau)
-
The old Hospital of Santa Creu was built by Lluis Domènech i Muntaner and it represents one of the modernist jewells that the city has restored for the tourism but by now, it still seems pretty unknown by most of the people.
Sant Pau is the biggest modernist ensemble in the world and it’s a new area to discover. The visit allows to know it deeply as well as all the restoration process. The tour will take you to the beginning of the 20th century, when Barcelona had its biggest urbanistic development, and built one of the oldest health care institutions in Europe.
