Palau Guell

The Palau Güell is a palace in Barcelona designed by the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí for the Catalan industrial tycoon Eusebio de Güell[?].

It is one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Very interesting is the iron gate with parabolic arch and intricate patterns of forged iron-work resembling seaweed and in some parts a horsewhip.
