One of the defining characteristics of Catalonia’s home-grown art nouveau, modernisme, was the creation of unique architectural spaces that brought together all the arts in spectacular fashion. On this tour you will discover these places, many of them off the usual tourist trails but still in use today, that will reveal the atmosphere and splendour of modernista bohemian life.
The bohemian trail is designed so that you can share the excitement, secrets and adrenalin with the artists who still meet in these century-old bars.
As you enjoy a drink, you’ll find out about the complex society that gave rise to one of the most intense periods in Barcelona’s history.
