<p><strong>A Glimpse into the Past</strong></p>
<p>Park Güell’s history is closely intertwined with the life and work of Antoni Gaudí. The park was initially conceived as a housing development project commissioned by Eusebi Güell, a wealthy Catalan industrialist and Gaudí’s patron. The goal was to create a high-end residential area inspired by the British garden city movement. Construction began in 1900 but was halted after only two houses were built, leaving the project incomplete. Eventually, the park was converted into a public space, and it was opened to the public in 1926.</p>
