The Terrassa Highlights Tour from Barcelona starts at Masia Freixa, the emblematic building of Gaudian inspiration built by the architect Lluís Muncunill between 1905 and 1910. Emphasizing at the rounded profiles and the use of the parabolic arch, the building is one of the jewels of modernist patrimony in Terrassa. The itinerary continues to the National Museum of Science and Technique of Catalonia (mNACTEC). This exceptional building, is one of the best examples of Catalan industrial modernism, and hosts the permanent exhibition of the “textile factory”.
