Casa Milà, commonly known as La Pedrera is the largest civil building designed by Antoni Gaudi. The apartment block was constructed between 1906 and 1910. It was Gaudi's last work before devoting himself to the construction of the Sagrada Familia. The top floor, attic and roof terrace are open to visitors. The apartment on the top floor gives an idea of how the interior must have looked at the beginning of the 20th century. The attic houses an exposition of Gaudi's works, with photos and scale models of his buildings and the roof terrace is probably the most extraordinary of the building.
