Casa Martí - Free Audio Guide

Casa Martí is a historic Modernist building in Barcelona, widely known for having housed the bohemian café Els Quatre Gats around the turn of the 20th century. As a focal point for artists, writers and intellectuals of the Catalan modernisme movement, the site retains cultural significance through its association with early episodes in Pablo Picasso’s career and with the period’s literary and artistic networks. Architecturally, the façade and interior display decorative details and art‑nouveau influences typical of the era. Today Casa Martí is valued for its heritage, occasional exhibitions and conserved period interiors that evoke its artistic past. Visiting arrangements vary by season and program; public access is generally offered through scheduled hours, special exhibitions and interpretive displays with modest admission. Some historic areas have limited physical accessibility, though adaptations and assistance are often provided to accommodate visitors.
