Capricho de Gaudí Tour

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the entrance of the Capricho de Gaudí (Villa Quijano) to begin our guided tour of this villa in Comillas.

Before entering the building, we'll admire the decorative details of its facade, showcasing Gaudí's combination of oriental, Gothic, Islamic, Nasrid, and Mudejar elements, highlighted by its 20-meter high tower.

We'll stroll through the manicured gardens and enter the villa to discover its interior decoration, including carved wooden furniture, colorful stained glass windows, railings with musical motifs, and ceramics.

During the tour, we'll discuss the villa's history, which was declared an "Asset of Cultural Interest" in 1969, and note that it is one of the few buildings designed by Gaudí outside of Catalonia, nearly falling into ruins after the Spanish Civil War.

After 45 minutes of touring this unique villa, we'll say our goodbyes outside the Capricho de Gaudí.
