Hospital de Sant Pau

The former Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau was built between 1901-1930 and was designed by the Catalan modernist architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner. When we were there it was under restoration, but Jose has done an excellent gallery including the finished project http://www.pbase.com/joseantonio/santpau&page=all . It has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

I'm having another short surgery tomorrow, after which I will hopefully be back on my feet, more or less. Finally!

I like the fact that you're posting on 2 architecture galleries which are so different in style.

That is a very pretty building! Love the design! The modern building is very unique, but I prefer the older architecture!
