| Located on Passeig de Gràcia in Barcelona, Casa Batlló is a Spanish building by the modernist architect Antoni Gaudí. It was built in 1877. The building was renovated by him between 1904 and 1906 for the textile magnate Josep Batlló i Casanovas. As with Casa Milà just down the road, there is nothing angular here: everything is undulating and rounded like the waves of the sea. The facade is covered with mosaic reminiscent of the scales of a fish. The columns on the ground floor resemble the legs of dinosaurs and the undulating mosaic roof the backbone of a huge monster. The balconies look like huge jaws of sea creatures, springing out of the sea, as it were. The central theme is of the dragon slayer Saint George.

In Dutch, as in many other languages, the Palace of Versailles is often spoken of. In France and also in other countries, however, the name palais is only used for a building in the city, a similar building in the countryside is called château. The castle of Versailles was originally located in the countryside (the city of Versailles was later built next to the castle by order of Louis XIV) and moreover it was originally a real castle that, due to the renovations, acquired the allure of a "palace".
