100 Euros Gaudí Centenary - Park Güell

To mark the 100th anniversary of the death of Antoni Gaudí, Spain will celebrate the Year of Gaudí in 2026. The Royal Mint (FNMT) announced the launch of a numismatic series to commemorate the event. On Monday, March 23, 2026, the "Gaudí Centenary 2026" numismatic collection was issued, a series of seven commemorative coins that pay tribute to the genius of Catalan Modernism.

Antoni Gaudí i Cornet (25 June 1852 – 10 June 1926) was a Catalan architect and designer from Spain, known as the greatest exponent of Catalan Modernism. Gaudí's works have a highly individualized, sui generis style. Most are located in Barcelona, including his main work, the church of the Sagrada Família.

Park Güell (Catalan: Parc Güell; Spanish: Parque Güell) is a complex of parks and gardens in Barcelona with architectural elements, located in the La Salut neighborhood of the Gràcia district in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. It is situated on the southern slope of the Turó del Carmel hill, part of the Collserola mountain range, overlooking the city. In the context of Barcelona's late 19th and early 20th-century urban expansion, Catalan industrialist and art patron Eusebi Güell commissioned architect Antoni Gaudí, a leading figure of the aesthetic movement in Catalan modernism, to design a park.
