About
Casa Mila, popularly known as La Pedrera, is a most unusual building, constructed between 1906 and 1912 by the architect Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926) and declared UNESCO World Heritage in 1984. Today it is the headquarters of Fundacio Catalunya La Pedrera and houses a cultural centre that is a reference point in Barcelona for the range of activities it organises and the different spaces for exhibitions and other public uses it contains. A visit to La Pedrera, landmark building and container, gives us a better understanding and appreciation of architecture and transports us to the period when Antoni Gaudi lived.

Top ways to experience Casa Milà - La Pedrera
The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Eixample
Passing through the glorious Plaça Catalunya, you enter the newer city district of Eixample, literally translated as “extension,” which immediately becomes recognisable by its more spacious streets and elegant atmosphere. The main artery of this sizable district, Passeig de Gracia, is lined with high-end international designer stores. Not to be outdone, the glitz and glamour of this zone is perhaps best exemplified by the comfortable and lavish five-star hotels that flank the divine and modernistic buildings from some of the world’s most recognised architects such as Gaudi and Montaner.

If George Lucas was truly impressed and influenced by the Gaudi chimneys and structures, you'll see it in the front of the Sagrada Familia and on the rooftop here. Darth Vader, stormtroopers. The rooftop lightshow is fun, and the view of the Madrid streets on a clear night is beautiful.

Thanks for your comments, we’re glad that you enjoyed your experience at Casa Mila. As you say, the night experience at La Pedrera is an absolutely unique, immersive experience that’s full of surprises and will amaze everyone. Now you can also enjoy a new combined ticket: La Pedrera by day and by night, two follow-up visits to live the magic of the Casa Mila day and night.
Sincerely,

We loved touring this building as they have displays of how affluent people lived in the early 20th century. Moreso, they had exhibits on how Gaudi worked his structures. Very enjoyable.

There was a reduction in the entrance fee due to my Disability. I have MS and was on my Mobility scooter. This is an Amazing building and the Staff did a brilliant job in helping me to gain access to the various parts of this beautiful Gaudi building. I would recommend you visit too!!!

Less of a wow than Casa Battló. The guide seemed intent on describing all of Antoni Gaudi's works so if you are not planning on also going to Parc Guell, Sagrada Familia, or Casa Battló this might be a decent option. However, those are worth it independently so I wouldn't recommend.
The regular tour consists of walking up 8 flights of stuffy stairs and then the majority of the sights include time on the very exposed (read: extremely sunny and hot) rooftop terrace (where the cool chimneys, views and sculptures and trencadis are). Beware, it is very hot -- would recommend early morning or evening and there was crawling with tourists

Thanks for taking the time to share your opinion about Casa Milà. We are really glad that you find it worth to visit. This building, considered as a “petrified wave” or a “giant sculpture” is interesting for those who are into architecture, art, Modernisme or Gaudí, as well as for those who are not. As you say, the Whale Attic with the Gaudí exhibition offers a broad view of his work, showing the most basic traits of his clearly visual and empirical way of understanding architecture through models, audiovisuals and objects. The route around the space is divided into seven areas, one of which is devoted entirely to La Pedrera.
Sincerely,

I have been to Casá Milá two times now and I can't get enough. I will visit again next time I am in Barcelona. I just love it. It is an architectural masterpiece and also tells the story of Gaudí and how he evolved as an artist and architect.

this is a great tour. casa batllo is better and more encompassing, but more expensive. do just one, batllo. really wanted the behind the scenes tour with the car park and more but couldn't get it. the size of the home is astonishing, to think it was a single residence is amazing.

A superb tour of architecture. A must see if in Barcelona. If you have a short time only, exterior view is equally amazing. Please do visit.

Gaudi's 2nd architectural master piece, is incredible. Visiting from the outside only, as the masterpiece dwarfs above with its tree like canopy providing shade. Magnificent structure and engineering.

Wonderful audio tour! We started our day of Gaudi architecture here and it was a great way to start the day! Such great history on Gaudi himself, as well as a fantastic look at the home. Would highly recommend this looking to explore the architecture of the city!

Quanti sono i gradini per salire fino in cima?grazie
Alba Tosquella
Barcelona, Spain
About the stairs, nowadays La Pedrera has 2 lifts that allow visitors to reach the roof top during the visit. Even if we recommend to use the service stairs because every single corner of the house is worth to be seen, visitors are also welcome to use the lift if they prefer it.
Sincerely,
Hello, does anyone know whether you can take small dogs with you that fit into a bag? I know that pets are generally not allowed, but I hope there might be an exception if they are in a container.

We booked the night tour a couple of months ago, but now its not looking like we will be able to get into Spain at all due to travel bans. (We're from the US). Does anyone know if there is any possibilty for a refund?
Alba Tosquella
Barcelona, Spain
If for whatever reason you decide to change the date of your visit, we will manage to change it. But if finally you cannot visit La Pedrera, we will refund you the amount of your ticket. The Catalunya La Pedrera Foundation, which manages La Pedrera, wants to offer maximum flexibility to people interested in visiting the building.
It is forecast to rain this evening. Is it a bad idea to buy tickets for La Pedrera Night Experience?
Alba Tosquella
Barcelona, Spain
Dear visitor, for safety reasons, The Night Experience visit is closed to the visitors in case of rain. We hope you can visit us the next time.

If we come to the evening tour, how long is the tour? I see that they are also timed so if we get tickets for 22:20 will that give enough time to explore?

I did the morning one. Although it’s light until 22:30, I don’t know whether you will be able to explore the roof top terrace as well as you could in the daytime.

Le cuffie dell’audioguida sono fornite da voi monouso o vanno portate da fuori?
Alba Tosquella
Barcelona, Spain
Buongiorno,
L'audioguida è inclusa nel prezzo del biglietto e disponibile in diverse lingue. Le cuffie dell’audioguida vengono consegnate negli armadietti e quelle fornite dall'edificio sono utilizzate poiché l'audio guida è automatica. Ha sensori che riconoscono automaticamente dove si trova il visitatore e cosa vedono in ogni momento. Questo nuovo sistema immersivo completa la concezione sensoriale dell'attuale visita all'edificio, rafforzando e sottolineando la fonte di ispirazione di Antoni Gaudí: la natura. Il nuovo sistema audioguida è progettato per facilitare il viaggio del visitatore.
Cordiali saluti,
