Sights in Reus

Reus, that is Antoni Gaudi (1852-1926). Reus, that is Catalan Art Nouveau in incredible variety. These two predicates already say a lot about the city. Everything in Reus revolves around the preservation of the countless buildings that flaunt their facades, but one hardly gets into the houses themselves on one’s own. Only through the tourist office are organized tours under the heading “Routes of Art Nouveau” into the houses possible.

To learn more about the Catalan form of Art Nouveau, a city tour has been developed. It is well signposted and the most important buildings have information panels.

But all the pride of the city is Gaudi. At the Gaudi Centre you can learn all about perhaps the greatest architectural genius of all time. Audiovisuals show stages of his life: “Reus, Paris, London…. Gaudi. The making of a genius”. The room with mirrored walls behind which you can trace his development is unique: the boiler shop where he learned how to design shapes, or his classroom where he discovered geometry for himself.
