About la Salut
Where to stay in la Salut
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
A stay in la Salut puts Park Güell, Casa Vicens and the Gaudi House Museum within the same neighbourhood, which is a rare combination for a residential quarter of Barcelona. Hotels are few. Most visitors sleep elsewhere in Barcelona and travel to Park Güell for a morning.
Choosing la Salut instead means quieter evenings among the houses of Casa Roviralta and Torre Simon, with the Royal Sanctuary of Saint Joseph of the Mountain in the same walk.
About la Salut
What are the main landmarks in la Salut?
The list here is unusually long. Park Güell heads it, with Casa Vicens, the Gaudi House Museum and the Royal Sanctuary of Saint Joseph of the Mountain all recorded inside the same neighbourhood of Barcelona. Church of Our Lady of Grace and Saint Joseph and Sant Joan de Gràcia carry the parish names.
Campanar de Gràcia, the Oratori de Sant Felip Neri and Mare de Déu del Coll extend that religious layer, while Lluïsos de Gràcia and the Joan Maragall Archive stand for the civic one. Three grounds close it: Nou Sardenya, Camp de l'Àliga and Camp del Guinardó.
What is the history of la Salut?
Nothing in the record fixes a start. la Salut comes down as a set of houses and institutions, Casa Roviralta, Casa Comas d'Argemir, Casa Gustà, Casa Fornells and Can Pardal, rather than as a charter with a year attached. Casa de les Altures and Torre Sant Jordi belong to the same run of named buildings. The Joan Maragall Archive sits among them.
Dates stay scarce.
Where is la Salut?
Park Güell anchors la Salut. Mare de Déu del Coll, Casa Tosquella and Torre Simon stand among the streets around it, and Gràcia lies close by.
