Join a unique experience that captures the curiosity of adults and children alike: “Street Escape: Gaudí and the Hidden Treasure”, organised by Casa Batlló. This outdoor escape game turns a walk through the city into an exciting treasure hunt that immerses participants in the fascinating world of Catalan Modernism.

The itinerary includes landmarks such as Casa Milà, Casa Fuster and Casa de les Punxes, where participants use a clue book, a map and special tools to unravel mysteries and puzzles.

This route not only offers entertainment, but is also a profound educational immersion. Players become involved in the history and aesthetics of Gaudí and other Modernist architects, discovering hidden details of the city and learning about its cultural heritage in an active, participatory way. Although the game is designed mainly for adults, children and teenagers aged six and over will also enjoy the adventure, making it an ideal option for a family visit.

As well as being an adventure, “Gaudí and the Hidden Treasure” is an invitation to experience the history of Barcelona in an original, vibrant way, offering not just a walk but a live learning adventure that enriches any visit to the city with children or as a group.

Available daily from 9:45 to 18:30, this two-hour activity allows groups of between 2 and 10 people to explore the art and architecture of Barcelona in an interactive, playful way.

Gaudí’s magic for everyone: the best cultural plan with children

Casa Batlló stands out as an exceptional place for a visit with children, perfect for families looking to explore the universe of Antoni Gaudí. Through the “Gaudí’s Magic for Everyone” experience, this iconic building turns every visit into an exciting adventure, meticulously designed to fascinate and hold the attention of younger visitors. It is free for children up to the age of 12, making it an ideal option for enjoying as a family without financial worries.

The experience begins in the immersive rooms, where a technologically advanced cube with screens on all its faces envelops visitors in a dance of Gaudí works that move around them. Accompanied by a tablet, young explorers can interact with augmented-reality content that reveals the secrets and inspiration behind Gaudí’s creations.

One of the most magical moments is the visit to the rotating room with 360º projections. There, children immerse themselves in the natural world that so fascinated Gaudí, discovering how nature inspired his designs through an immersive visual experience that shows them more than a thousand screens.

The tour also includes a walk through the former residence of the Batlló family, meticulously restored to reflect the splendour of the early 20th century. The interactive paintings along the route tell the story of the family and the house, and the holograms scattered throughout the building invite young people to seek out and discover hidden magical details.

For families with babies, Casa Batlló has thought of everything, offering practical solutions such as baby carriers and pushchair storage. In addition, the museum’s pet-friendly policy allows visitors to bring their pets, ensuring that no one in the family is left behind.

Open every day of the year, from 9:00 to 20:00, this cultural journey lasts approximately 75 minutes.
