Location: Palau del Baró de Quadras
Visit one of Barcelona’s gems. The Palau Baró de Quadras is a small modernista palace located in Barcelona on Avinguda Diagonal, equidistant from La Pedrera and Casa de les Punxes. It was built by the Catalan architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch between 1904 and 1906. In 1976, it was designated as a National Historical Monument of Artistic Interest. Currently, it houses the main offices of the Institut Ramon Llull.
Starting with a thorough renovation of an existing building on a narrow plot of land that faced Carrer Rosselló, Puig i Cadafalch created this small Modernista building, now with two facades, Diagonal and Rosselló. The palace is in the Quadrat d'or, where the most important Modernista buildings are situated. Such as Casa Milà – La Pedrera, Casa Batlló and Casa Calvet designed by Antoni Gaudí, Casa Amatller and Casa de les Punxes created by Josep Puig i Cadafalch or Casa Lleó Morera designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner.
The Avinguda Diagonal facade has one of the most impressive Gothic revival balconies seen in Modernista architecture. The artisans Alfons Juyol and Eusebi Arnau used carved stone for their design. The rear facade, facing Carrer Rosselló, has floral motifs extending horizontally and vertically along the three balconies and down the four floors.
