Casa de Botines
Casa de Botines Review
Just south of the old town is the Casa de Botines, a multigabled, turreted, granite behemoth designed in the late 1800s by the world-famous Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí (1852-1926). It now houses a bank that's closed to tourists. The building is gorgeous just from the outside—it's a stark contrast to Gaudí's other more famous buildings.
