Lonely Planet review for Colònia Güell

Apart from La Sagrada Família, Gaudí’s last big project was the creation of a utopian textile workers’ complex, the Colònia Güell, built for his magnate patron Eusebi Güell outside Barcelona at Santa Coloma de Cervelló. Gaudí’s main role was to erect the colony’s church. Work began in 1908 but the idea fizzled eight years later and Gaudí only finished the crypt, which still serves as a working church.
