A must for understanding Gaudi

Gaudí revolutionized architecture and built many of Barcelona’s most iconic buildings. But, Gaudí was originally from Reus but, as the Spanish saying goes, “no one is a prophet in their own land”, and Gaudí never built anything in his hometown. But, this center does offer a way to get to know his work and understand the originality and genius behind his style of architecture which started as simple experimentation and ended up giving birth to the Sagrada Familia Cathedral.

The best part is that you can touch everything and it is completely interactive.

Life and work

The Gaudí Centre Museum is located in the center of Reus right next to the Town Hall. It’s dedicated to the life and work of Gaudí and is very modern with plenty of audiovisual aids. It’s spread out over three storeys and is located in the Office of Tourism in the same building as the Gaudir restaurant.

Antonio Gaudí, el famosísimo arquitecto catalán, nació en Reus, pasando aquí toda su infancia y adolescencia antes de que se marchara a Barcelona para dar rienda suelta al genio que llevaba dentro. Curiosamente, no hay ninguna obra suya en la ciudad, cumpliendo con la premisa de que “nadie es profeta en su tierra”. Hubo varios proyectos para que Gaudí construyera en su ciudad, pero por una cosa u otra, nunca llegaron seguir adelante. No obstante, Reus está orgullosa de su paisano y sólo hay que darse un paseo por la ciudad para comprobar que su recuerdo está muy presente, habiendo incluso una ruta que te llevará a descubrir las huellas que dejó el arquitecto. En la Plaça Mercadal podrás visitar el Gaudí Centre, sin duda la joya de la corona del turismo de Reus. Más que de un museo, se trata de un centro interpretativo en el que a través de sencillas explicaciones con audiovisuales y maquetas se repasa la carrera de este genio de la arquitectura sumergiéndote en su universo. Me encantó la maqueta del Parc Guëll de Barcelona, en el que te explican como ya en esta época diseñaba sus edificios de una manera ecológica. ¡Dale al botón! Sin duda, el Gaudí Centre es el mejor homenaje que Reus podía hacerle a su hijo más predilecto. Precio: 9 € /  Mas info: www.gaudicentre.cat
Antonio Gaudí, the famous Catalan architect, was born in Reus, spending all his childhood and adolescence here before he left for Barcelona to unleash the genius inside. Interestingly, there is no work of his in the city, complying with the premise that "no one is a prophet in his land." There were several projects for Gaudí to build in his city, but for one thing or another, they never got on. However, Reus is proud of his countryman and you just have to take a walk through the city to verify that his memory is very present, even having a route that will take you to discover the traces left by the architect. In Plaça Mercadal you can visit the Gaudí Center, without a doubt the jewel in the crown of tourism of Reus. More than a museum, it is an interpretive center in which, through simple explanations with audiovisuals and models, the career of this genius of architecture is reviewed by immersing you in his universe. I loved the model of the Parc Guëll of Barcelona, in which they explain to you how already at this time he designed his buildings in an ecological way. Hit the button! Without a doubt, the Gaudí Center is the best tribute that Reus could make to his most favorite son. Price: € 9 / More info: www.gaudicentre.cat

A very entertaining museum

Un museo muy entretenido

El Gaudí Centre es el homenaje que le hace la ciudad natal de Gaudí, Reus. Una ciudad del interior de Tarragona, la capital del Baix Camp que tuvo mucha importancia comercial en Cataluña durante finales del S. XIX y principios del S. XX, la época en la que crece Gaudí allí. El Gaudí Centre es un museo en el que no solo puedes contemplar los proyectos de su juventud sino que te da la oportunidad de interactuar en diferentes salas.
The Gaudí Centre is the tribute which makes it the birthplace of Gaudi Reus. An inland city of Tarragona, the capital of the Baix Camp that had much commercial importance in Catalonia in late S. Nineteenth and early S. Century, the time when there is growing Gaudí. The Gaudí Centre is a museum where you can not only see the projects in its youth, but it gives you the opportunity to interact in different rooms.

Que nous aimiez les musées ou pas; le centre Gaudi est tout simplement génial! Unique en son genre, le centre rend hommage au maître Gaudi au travers différentes installations audio-guidées.

Aunque Gaudí nació en Reus en esta ciudad no encontrarás ni un sólo edificio que lleve su firma. Eso sí, nada mejor que este centro de interpretación para acercarte a su vida y su obra. Es muy interactivo y colorista. En el encontrarás, entre otras cosas, una maqueta original de la construcción de la Sagrada Familia, así como toda la evolución de la construcción de este templo.
Although Gaudí was born in Reus in this city will not find a single building bearing his signature. Of course, nothing like this interpretation center to approach their life and work.
