Església de les Saleses
Lonely Planet review for Església de les Saleses
A singular neo-Gothic effort, this church is interesting above all because of who built it. Raised in 1878–85 with an adjacent convent (badly damaged in the civil war and now a school), it was designed by Joan Martorell i Montells (1833–1906), Gaudí’s architecture professor. Indeed, the church offers some hints of what was to come with Modernisme, with his use of brick, mosaics and sober stained glass.
