Casa Macaia
Casa Macaia Review
This graceful Puig i Cadafalch building constructed in 1901 was the former seat of the ubiquitous Centre Cultural Fundació "La Caixa," a deep-pocketed, far-reaching cultural entity funded by the Caixa Catalana (Catalan Savings Bank). Look for the Eusebi Arnau sculptures over the door depicting, somewhat cryptically, a man mounted on a donkey and another on a bicycle, reminiscent of the similar Arnau sculptures on the facade of Puig i Cadafalch's Casa Amatller on Passeig de Gràcia.
