Geocache Description:



Entre els carrers Consell de Cent i Aragó, en tot just 100 metres escassos, es concentren tres dels millors exemples modernistes de la ciutat. El primer que es troba és la Casa Lleó-Morera, obra de l'arquitecte Lluís Doménech i Montaner i, a molt poca distància, la Casa Amatller, de Josep Puig i Cadafalch i la Casa Batlló, del cèlebre Antoni Gaudí. Per l'extrema proximitat d'aquests tres cridaners edificis aquest tram es coneix com la Mansana de la Discòrdia. I just aquí, a les portes de la Casa Amatller, una rajola al terra indica que ens trobem en el km.0 de la Ruta Europea del Modernisme.

Among the streets Consell de Cent and Arago, in just 100 feet away, provides three of the best examples of modernist city. The first is the Casa Lleo-Morera, by the architect Lluis Domenech i Montaner, a short distance, the Casa Amatller, Josep Puig i Cadafalch and the Casa Batlló, Antoni Gaudí. For the extreme proximity of these three attractive buildings this stretch is known as the "Mansana de la Discòrdia" ("apple of discord"), where the play on words depends on the double meaning of the word "mansana" ("block of houses" as well as "apple"). And right here, at the gates of the Casa Amatller, a tile on the ground indicates that we are in the Km.0 European Route of Modernism.
