Masia Freixa

The Masia Freixa is a farmhouse building inspired by Gaudí and built by architect Lluís Muncunill i Parellada between 1905 and 1910. It is
built on the structure of an old textile mill owned by industrialist Josep Freixa, who later converted it into his family residence.
Of interest are the rounded cross-sections and the use of the parabolic arch, which make the building one of the treasures of the
city’s Modernist heritage.
The City Council bought the farm in 1959 and its gardens became the city’s first public park.
Located right in the middle of the Parc Sant Jordi, at present it is home to city council offices and the tourist office.
