This is architect Lluís Domènech i Muntaner's most important work. The work he started in 1901 was completed by his son in 1929. There are 48 sections, all decorated with mosaics, sculptures and murals,separated by gardens and connected by underground tunnels. The reception area was decorated by artist and sculptor Pablo Gargallo. The hospital was fully functional by 1930. Additional sections were completed over subsequent decades. The Pabellón de la Merced area won a decorative arts award in 1980. Guided tours are available by prior arrangement.
