Comillas Unmissables

Comillas showcases a unique concentration of Catalan Modernism outside of Catalonia. This selection highlights the legacy of Antonio López y López, the first Marquis of Comillas, featuring Joan Martorell’s Neo-Gothic Palacio de Sobrellano and Antoni Gaudí’s sunflower-tiled El Capricho. The town’s architectural landscape is further defined by Lluís Domènech i Montaner’s intricate works, including the monumental cemetery ruins and the Fuente de los Tres Caños. These landmarks represent the 19th-century transformation of this Cantabrian coastal village into a prestigious summer retreat.
