The Gaudí House Museum (Catalan: Casa Museu Gaudí; Spanish: Casa-Museo Gaudí), located within the Park Güell in Barcelona, is a historic home museum that houses a collection of furniture and objects designed by the Spanish architect Antoni Gaudí. It was the residence of Gaudí for almost 20 years, from 1906 until the end of 1925.
