Visitors can explore the interior, which includes the central patio, the main floor with its undulating walls, and the attic with its ribbed arches. The site offers various visit options, including standard daytime tours and evening night visits, which provide a different perspective on the illuminated façade. The experience is enhanced by an official visitor app that offers augmented reality features, allowing guests to visualize the transformation of the building during Gaudí’s renovation.
