Casa Milà (La Pedrera)

Casa Milà (La Pedrera) is Antoni Gaudí's last civil masterpiece (1906–1912) on Passeig de Gràcia, famous for its undulating stone façade, warrior-helmet chimneys, and 360° rooftop views. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it houses the only Barcelona exhibition dedicated to Gaudí's full career.

Key facts

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to book tickets in advance?

Yes — Casa Milà operates timed-entry slots and queues can be very long, especially in summer. Booking online is cheaper (saves up to €4 vs. box office) and lets you skip the ticket queue. Flexible 'Open Date' tickets valid for 6 months are also available on lapedrera.com.

Is the La Pedrera Night Experience worth it?

The Night Experience (€39.50) is a guided after-hours tour ending with an audiovisual light show on the rooftop chimneys, with cava included. It offers an intimate, crowd-free atmosphere and is especially popular for couples and photography enthusiasts. A dinner add-on can also be booked.

How do I get to Casa Milà by public transport?

The closest metro stop is Diagonal (L3 Green Line and L5 Blue Line), just a 2–5 minute walk away. Numerous bus lines (V15, V17, H10, H8, 7, 22, 24, 6, 33, 34) stop directly in front of the building. The FGC Provença station is also about 6 minutes on foot.

What is included in the standard ticket?

Every Essential ticket covers the Warrior Rooftop with 360° panoramic views, the Whale Attic housing the Espai Gaudí exhibition (270 catenary brick arches), the period Tenants' Apartment, and both interior courtyards — all across 4,500 m² on five floors. An audioguide in 11 languages is included.
