Conservation Note
Cycling reduces urban impact compared with motor tours; follow guide advice on staying on designated bike lanes and avoiding restricted pedestrian zones.
Barcelona’s Modernisme movement (late 1800s–early 1900s) reshaped the city’s identity; Gaudí’s works sit alongside contemporaries who pushed decorative and structural innovation.
