In Reus, the town where the great architect Antoni Gaudí was born and educated, diverse architects and artists worked who conceived of the city as a veritable Modernista stage setting. Despite Gaudí’s ties with Reus, however, it was Lluís Domènech i Montaner who left the greatest imprint on the town, with the construction of the Institut Pere Mata, Casa Rull, Casa Gasull and Casa Navàs, buildings which may be visited with the guided tour service offered by the Municipal Board of Tourism and Commerce.

The Modernisme Route is a pleasant walk through the centre of town, along a path that is clearly signposted and where the various buildings are identified by a plaque. This route allows one to become acquainted with some of the most interesting Modernista façades and to relive the spirit that imbued Reus in the year 1900.
