Gaudí Centre

Gaudí Centre museum in Reus, at the Information office.

The Gaudí Centre is a space dedicated to the architect Antoni Gaudí, the most famous former resident of Reus. Here, visitors can learn about the life and work of Gaudí in an interactive and participatory way. Through the use of audiovisuals, interactive models, personal objects, and other didactic resources, the centre offers an immersive experience that reveals the secrets of this genius of Catalan modernism and his connection with the city. The visit is accompanied by an audio guide, which further enriches the experience, allowing visitors to delve into every detail of the work of the renowned architect from Reus.

Institut Pere Mata

Institut Pere Mata de Reus, exterior i interior.

Designed by the architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner, the Pere Mata Institute is one of the great works of European Art Nouveau. Currently, you can visit the Pavilion of the Distinguished, admired for its ornamental richness and for being an exceptional example of modernist architecture. The guided tour with an audio guide will immerse you in the history of the patients from the affluent classes who resided there, while exploring the different spaces full of fascinating details. This architectural complex is located in the northern area of the city, accessible by walking up the Boca de la Mina promenade or by public transport. And with the Visit Reus bracelet, you can take Bus 30 from the center of Reus to Pere Mata at no cost.

La Prioral

The Reus church, La Prioral de Sant Pere in Reus

Although entry to the Prioral Church of Sant Pere is free, as it is an active place of worship, with the Visit Reus bracelet, you can get much more from your visit. The bracelet allows you to discover all the details and secrets of this space thanks to an audio guide. The Prioral de Sant Pere, the spiritual heart of the city, is a living testament to the history of Reus. Exploring the interior of this grand monument, which dates back to the 12th century, is essential for understanding illustrious figures from Reus and local history.

El Campanar

Spiral staircase at Reus Bell tower, called El Campanar.

Climbing to the top of the Bell Tower of the Prioral Church of Sant Pere is a unique experience that offers breathtaking views of Reus and its surroundings. With its 119 meters in height, this Gothic tower is one of the city’s main symbols. From its highest point, visitors can enjoy a spectacular 360-degree panoramic view of the city, stretching from the coast to the mountains, allowing you to capture the beauty of Reus from a new perspective. Although the church can be visited every day, climbing to the top of the Bell Tower is only possible on weekends and holidays.

Additionally, the Visit Reus bracelet not only grants you access to these three great symbols of the city but also includes benefits such as: the family scavenger hunt at the Gaudí Centre, guided tours to learn about the history of vermouth, and half-price vermouth tasting at the Enological Station.
