Modernism developed in Catalonia from the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century.

In Gelida it had numerous artistic manifestations, such as architecture, with important historic houses, and a wealthy class that understood this art as a moment of creativity and modernity.

In a particular way, the emergence of the first summer vacation in Gelida was closely linked to the outbreak of Modernism

By following the points from the Cultural Centre (4) onwards, you’ll be able to enjoy the main examples of modernist architecture in the town centre. There is also a guided modernist tour on the last Sunday of every month. Tickets for this tour must be reserved in advance from the Gelida Castle Interpretation Centre.

Duration: 1.5 hours
