The Chapel

The simple openings of some intricately decorated doors reveals a small area of worship and converts the palace´s large central hall into a liturgical space, which even includes a pipe organ designed by Gaudí.The doors leading to the chapel have 24 paintings, 12 saints in the exterior and 12 apostles in the interior. In 1876 Eusebi Güell received the papal license to celebrate relisious ceremonies in his residence.

Not the easiest room to photograph, but you've done a fine job of it. Nice that the paintings in both doors are so visible. V.
