Which one to choose in Barcelona
Two churches in Barcelona. Santa Maria del Pi has no online ticket listed; Church of Colònia Güell has 1 ticket or tour to book. The table and the two notes below put them side by side; the full pages have what to see, the ticket and the timing for each.
Barcelona, Spain
A modest ticket covers the church, the small museum in the chapterhouse and the bell tower, and the combined version is the only one worth buying. The tower is 54 metres and about 150 steps, with a view over the Gothic Quarter and the Ramblas that is better than anything from street level. Guitar and flamenco concerts are staged in the nave most evenings and are ticketed separately by promoters;
Barcelona, Spain
The Crypt of Colònia Güell stands in the industrial colony of Colònia Güell, in Santa Coloma de Cervelló, about twenty kilometres south-west of Barcelona, and a ticket is required, covering the crypt, the interpretation centre and a walk through the colony, with an audio guide. It is one of Antoni Gaudí's most innovative works and part of the UNESCO World Heritage listing of Gaudí's works.
