Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 242 reviews
The Masia Freixa is a building inspired by Gaudi and built by architect Lluis Muncunill i Parellada between 1905 and 1910. It is built on the structure of an old textile mill owned by industrialist Josep Freixa, who later converted it into his family residence. Of interest are the rounded cross-sections and the use of the parabolic arch, which make the building one of the treasures of the city’s Modernist Heritage. The City Council bought the farm in 1959 and its gardens became the city’s first public park. Located right in the middle of the Parc Sant Jordi, at present it is home to city council offices and the Tourist Office.
