Come and be surprised with the Casa de Les Punxes in Barcelona, Spain | MONOMAD Challenge


Hello my dear friends of Black and White, I hope you are having a beautiful day. In this #monomad challenge I come to share a surprise that I took walking through Barcelona.

You've probably experienced this thing of visiting a place and suddenly having a certain amount of specific points to know, but of course, once there, you get the surprise that logically, there are many more.

This happened to me with the Casa de les Punxes, also known as Casa Terrada. Although I did not enter the building, I did take some pictures of this incredible architecture and some of its surroundings, because in front of a modern city, there were some medieval peaks that I had no idea what they referred to, so I approached and there I discovered this point that many people come to visit.

Ven a sorprenderte con la Casa de Les Punxes en Barcelona, España | MONOMAD Challenge


Hola mis queridos amigos de Black and White, espero que estén pasando un hermoso día. En este #monomad challenge vengo a compartir una sorpresa que me llevé caminando por Barcelona.

Probablemente han experimentado esto de visitar un lugar y de pronto tener cierta cantidad de puntos específicos a conocer, pero claro, una vez allí, se llevan la sorpresa de que lógicamente, hay muchos más.

Esto me pasó a mi con la Casa de les Punxes, también conocida como Casa Terrada. Aunque no ingresé a la edificación, sí que tomé algunas fotos a esta increíble arquitectura y a algo de sus alrededores, pues ante una moderna ciudad, se elevaban unos picos medievales que no tenía demasiada idea a qué se referían, así que me acerqué y allí descubrí este punto que muchas personas se acercan a visitar.

La Casa de les Punxes, currently privately owned, and as the page barcelonaturisme.com says, it occupies a triangular block and is characterized by its medieval-style points (punxes means "points" in Catalan).

In addition, as you can read in Wikipedia, the construction of the house as such, dates from 1905 and its work is the result of the architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch, who was in charge of the realization of a house that would give home to the three daughters of Bartomeu Terradas Brutau.

This very particular house is located relatively close to the Basilica of the Sagrada Familia and the famous Plaza de Catalunya, while it is also close to the Gothic Quarter, specifically to the north of it.

It is very easy to reach if one intends to visit it, but at the same time it is likely that if you decide to simply walk around Barcelona, by its most recognized points, at some point you will arrive without even realizing it to the *Casa de les Punxes.

Esta casa tan particular, se encuentra relativamente cerca de la Basílica de la Sagrada Familia y de la famosa Plaza de Catalunya, mientras que también está cerca del Barrio Gótico, específicamente hacia el norte del mismo.

Es muy fácil llegar si uno tiene la intención de visitarla, pero al mismo tiempo es probable que si decides pasear simplemente por Barcelona, por sus puntos más reconocidos, en algún momento llegues sin siquiera darte cuenta a la *Casa de les Punxes.

As you can see in the photos, the details are exquisite. The construction is very complex, as it even has triangle-shaped windows, with points facing the public road.

In this way, we see that the peaks do not only refer to those that stand towards the sky, but basically come out of almost all the walls of this kind of castle that is located in the city.

The public trees, leafy and very close, give it a very particular touch, because usually when we see a "castle" like this, its surroundings are clear, and the same city or sector announces the presence of an emblematic construction. But in this case, this impressive creation appears before us, surrounded by urban life.

Its sides, as well as its doors, windows and decorations have an extraordinary workmanship, which little by little you will be able to associate with Barcelona, although its architects and construction periods vary.

Como pueden ver en las fotos, los detalles son exquisitos. La construcción es muy compleja, ya que hasta presenta ventanales en forma de triángulo, con puntas que miran hacia la vía pública.

De este modo, vemos que los picos no solo se refieren a esos que se erigen hacia el cielo, sino que básicamente salen por casi todas las paredes de esta especie de castillo que se encuentra en la ciudad.

El arbolado público, frondoso y muy cercano, le da un toque muy particular, pues por lo general cuando vemos un “castillo” así, su entorno está despejado, y la misma ciudad o sector anuncia la presencia de una construcción emblemática. Pero en este caso, aparece ante nosotros esta impresionante creación, rodeada de la vida urbana.

Tanto sus lados, como sus puertas, ventanas y decoraciones tienen un extraordinario trabajo, que poco a poco podrán asociar con Barcelona, aunque varíen sus arquitectos y épocas de construcción.
