Description
Chapel inside the Episcopal Palace of Astorga, by Antoni Gaudi.
View of the chapel from the corridor on the second floor. The Episcopal Palace of Astorga was built between 1889 and 1913. Designed in the Modernist style, it is one of three buildings by Gaudi outside Catalonia.
The edifice, built in gray granite, is in a neo-medieval style harmonizing with its location, including the cathedral in particular. It does, however, also feature some of the elements typical of the later Gaudi, such as the arches of the entrance with buttresses and the chimneys integrated in the side facades. The building has four cylindrical towers and is surrounded by a moat.
A magic and inspiring building.
