Above the entrance door there is a sculpture of Saint George killing the dragon. The building was designed for the weaving workshop on the ground floor and semi-basement, while the remaining four floors were used for rental apartments. Designed by the architect with a cubic shape, the four corners are highlighted with pointed elements.

This building in León, known as "Casa Botines," takes us back to the late 19th century. Designed by the still-famous and esteemed architect Antoni Gaudi (1852-1926), it was originally conceived and built as a residential and commercial building, but now serves as a museum.

Casa Botines, also known as Casa Fernández y Andrés, is a modernist-style building located in the Spanish city of León, capital of the province of the same name. Designed by the architect Antoni Gaudí between 1891 and 1892, this work is one of three that Gaudí created outside of Catalonia. Originally, Casa Botines functioned as a commercial warehouse and a private residence. Its design reflects the influence of the Barcelona and Parisian bourgeoisie, and its façade presents characteristic elements of modernism, such as ornamentation and organic shapes.
Today, Casa Botines houses the Gaudí Museum, which is the largest Antonio Gaudí museum in the world in León. Here, visitors can explore temporary and permanent exhibitions related to the history of the building, the figure of Gaudí and Spanish art of the 19th and 20th centuries.
If you ever find yourself in León, do not hesitate to visit Casa Botines and immerse yourself in the creativity and vision of one of the most influential architects in history. 🏰🎨
