The very nice place to see how people lived 100 years ago. The museum inspires. I really liked the interactive flight map.

A very well curated House/Museum with a textiles business showroom on the ground floor and residences on upper floors.Constructed on foundations of sand and water requiring very clever structural engineering . Gaudi was not only a great architect but a brilliant engineer.

If you have been to Barcelona, then you know Gaudi in his more exuberant stages of architecture. Here we see a more restrained Gaudi, but a master of architecture and materials.
This house is well worth seeing, and the English tour is well laid out with good explanations of the bottom textile trading floor, and the top residential units, the top units are well worth seeing because they are populated with period Furniture.

A complete gem. I experienced this beautiful building and its contents first thing on a Monday morning. It is in pristine condition, beautifully curated, and a wonderful testament to the breadth of Gaudi's work.

Great Gaudi designed building. Some good art and old photos. Some great reconstructions of 19th century rooms. I loved the dental equipment.

Took a terrific guided tour with detailed anecdotes and history, led at a good pace by a passionate and interesting young woman. Get to see the original "attic" roof spire on the guided tour. Lots of beautiful art inside this masterful, delicate "sedate" Gaudi. Gorgeous jewel box inside and out.

Really interesting also they have audio in 4 different languages including English price was 7 or 8 euro not sure with no traffic, but tge roof you can’t enter it without Guide which is idk why also some floors are closed for maintenance.

This is fantastic and classic building. Every time when I came to Leon I had to took many photos of this building. The design is amazing.

We appreciate Gaudi so we loved it!
I believe it was 5€. Pleasant staff.
The ground floor explains the history of the building as well as Gaudi's inspiration for his architecture. On this floor, only the original windows remain after renovations post his death.
It originally housed a fabric business, and renovations brought a bank and insurance. There is a mock up of each.
The 2nd and 3rd floors are dedicated to examples of Gaudi's work, explanations of various forms he used, videos, interactive video, and then a visit through one of the 12 apts for rent with all original furniture and decorations.
You also see the optometrist/dentist office that existed for residents. The dentist office hasn't evolved all that much.
On the 1st floor via a different staircase you can visit temporary exhibits.
Very recommeinnded.

One of only 3 places Gaudí designed outside Catalunya. Various prices but never expensive. I paid 5 euro for example. Right in the heart of León close to the cathedral. Various languages spoken. Souvenir shop on site.

A lot to see. Interesting history and variety of paintings and other art works associated with Gaudí.
2023-03-12 11:48:07 GMT
Unfortunately I was in Leon on a Monday and the museum was closed, but I could walk outside it and the building is beautiful.

What a gem this building is! The construction is very interesting, and adapted to the difficult swampy location, and the building itself has architectural features to increase the pleasure and comfort of the occupiers. We particularly loved the 19th century rooms. The ground floor has a brilliant display of items from the building's previous business occupiers, a couture house and a bank. I really enjoyed the flying experience on the top floor, and we both virtually dressed in bathing suits. 9 euros full price/7 euros seniors.

It was a nice surprise to find a glimpse of Gaudi’s work in Leon.

Amazing place. Really explores Gaudi's thought process with nature. Parts of the exhibition are interactive, which was fun. I recommend going.

It is a beautiful place. If you're in the area, be sure to visit!

I loved the displays on the first floor. A lot of detail about how and why Gaudi chose each material for this construction as well as an explanation about all the symbolism in many of the design choices. I like the hows and whys of building in general but that might not be everyone's cup of tea. Lot of people were skimming past me. The middle floor has more of an overview of Gaudi's career and an apartment set-up that you walk through, and the upper floor is an art gallery. If you are a fan of Gaudi or like architecture I would recommend a visit.

Beautiful place. Excellent treatment by the staff.

Fantastic experience, nice guide and incredible architecture and art.

In this city of the interior of Spain we find a magnificent example of architecture of the great Gaudí.
