A Faculty of Humanities Alumni Get-Together at Gaudi’s Bellesguard Tower

On 9 March 25 former students, professors and staff from the Faculty attended a guided tour of the Bellesguard Tower with refreshments served afterwards at the university. 

During the guided tour, given by Dr Judith Urbano, Dean of the Faculty, the history of the house and its different sections was described.  The fact that the Bellesguard Tower is one of the few Gaudi buildings that is still inhabited by the family that own it and its shape mean that it is one of the most exclusive tours that can be offered of the Catalan architect’s work.

The get-together ended with some refreshments at the university during which students and alumni members shared their experiences, memories and their personal accounts of the day’s events.
