  2. 1853 • Antoni Gaudí was born on June 25, 1852. He was born in the province of Tarragona in southern Catalonia. His full birth name is Antoni Plàcid Guillem Gaudí i Cornet. His parents were Francesc Gaudí Serra and Antónia Cornet Bertran and they both came from families of coppersmiths. Antoni Gaudí was a Spanish Catalan architect who is famous for his unique designs. • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoni_Gaud%C3%AD

  3. This is where Antoni Gaudí was born.

  4. Antoni Gaudí’s early life • Antoni Gaudí was the youngest of 5 children. All but one of his siblings died in childhood. Gaudí was a sick child and as a result he did not play much with other children. Instead of playing he took walks and observed the countryside. It was during this period that Antoni Gaudí’s fascination of architecture and design grew. • http://historicalbiographies.suite101.com/article.cfm/antoni_gaudi

  6. 1873 • In 1873 Antoni Gaudí went to school for architecture. He went to school at Escola Tecnica Superior d’Arquitectura in Barcelona. Gaudí went from 1873 to 1877. Finally, after five years Antoni Gaudí got the title of architect in 1878. • http://www.blurtit.com/q531407.html

  7. 1877 • In 1877 Antoni Gaudí built the Casa Batllό. The local name for the building is Casa dels ossos which means the house of bones. It has a skeletal organic quality and the outside looks like it is made from skulls and bones. The building was remodeled in 1904 to 1906. The building was designed by Gaudí for Josep Batlló, a wealthy aristocrat, as an upmarket home. Señor Batlló lived in the lower two floors with his family and the upper floors were rented out as apartments. • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casa_Batll%C3%B3 • http://www.barcelona-tourist-guide.com/en/gaudi/casa-batllo.html

  9. 1883 • In 1883 Antoni Gaudí started to build his creation of La Sagrada Família in Barcelona at the age of 31. From then on Antoni Gaudí spent most of his time working on this eccentric church. When Gaudí died there was only one nativity scene, one tower, and the apse and crypt were finished. • http://www.aviewoncities.com/barcelona/sagradafamilia.htm

  10. This is La Sagrada Família.

  11. 1900 • In 1900 Antoni Gaudí designed the Park Gϋell, which is also located in Barcelona. The Park Gϋell was composed to bring peace and clam that one would except from a park. The buildings at the entrance of this park that Gaudí designed have very wavy roofs, that fit in very well with the rest of Gaudí’s design. • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Park_G%C3%BCell

  12. This is a bench at Park Gϋell that shows Gaudí’s great mosaic work.

  13. 1906 • In 1906 Antoni Gaudí started to work on his creation of the Casa Milá. The Casa Milá is also known as La Pedrera, which means The Quarry. It was built for Rosario Segimon and Pere Milá who were a wealthy couple. The building was officially completed in 1912. Casa Milà was in poor condition in the early 1980s. It had been painted a dreary brown and many of its interior color schemes had been abandoned, but it has since been restored and many of the original colors revived. • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casa_Mil%C3%A0

  14. This is the Casa Milá.

  15. 1926 • On June 7, 1926 Antoni Gaudí was hit/ run over by a tram. Since he looked very dirty and unclean many cab drivers refused to pick him up in fear that he wouldn’t pay the fare. He was eventually taken to a paupers’ hospital in Barcelona. No one knew who he was because he spent all of his time hidden away working. His friends found him the next day. His friends tried to take Gaudí to a nicer hospital, he refused and said “ I belong here among the poor.” Antoni Gaudí died three days later on June 10, 1926. He died of the age of 73. He was buried in the middle of La Sagrada Família. Half of Barcelona was mourning his death. • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoni_Gaud%C3%AD
