Casa Martí, Residential building in Gothic Quarter, Barcelona, Spain
The Casa Martí exhibits large pointed arches on the ground floor with stained-glass windows and decorative balconies in Flamboyant architectural style.
Josep Puig i Cadafalch designed this residential structure in 1896 for the relatives of Francesc Vilumara, incorporating sculptures by Eusebi Arnau and ironwork by Manuel Ballarín.
The ground floor housed Els Quatre Gats tavern from 1897 to 1903, where artists like Pablo Picasso, Ramon Casas, and Santiago Rusiñol gathered regularly.
Located at Carrer Montsió 3, the building maintains its residential function while preserving the original architectural elements of Catalan modernism.
A statue of Saint Joseph by Josep Llimona stands on a pedestal at the corner, replacing the original sculpture destroyed during the Spanish Civil War.
