About

Walking along Passeig de Gràcia, you may come across a series of unusual buildings that sharply stand out from the overall architectural rows. The Amatller House, which became a true family palace for a Spanish chocolatier, is part of the so-called "Block of Discord" and is a protected national monument.

The house acquired its unconventional "appearance" in just two years, thanks to the tireless efforts of an entire staff of craftsmen under the command of a talented architect. From a distance, the roof of this "Amatller marvel" resembles an Egyptian pyramid, while the pediment is "crowned" with an allegorical depiction of the renowned homeowner. The top floor of the Gothic building is owned by the Institute of Spanish Art, which houses an extensive library.

Lugar muy especial para disfrutar de un buen desayuno en el centro de Barcelona y poder imaginar como sería esta casa hace unos siglos.

La maison-musée Amatler, sur l'élégant Passage de Grâce de Barcelone, en Espagne, est une occasion inouie pour découvrir le passé d'un bourgeois catalan au dernier siècle et apprendre le trajet tout à fait inhabituel de ce grand voyageur et collectionneur. Cette famille a été l'une des premières à se spécialiser dans le chocolat et leur marque de commerce est aujourd'hui aussi triomphale qu'à l'époque. Dans cet espace harmonieux, gâtez-vous en achetant de bons chocolats présentés en emballages de grand goût. Les billets sont vendus par l'organisation Cases Singulars. Les photographes de Photolator espèrent pouvoir vous visiter de nouveau!
