Laberint d'Horta
An eighteenth-century neoclassical estate at the foot of Collserola, given to the city and barely altered since.
The maze
Clipped cypress hedges with a single route to the centre, where a statue of Eros waits for whoever solves it first.
The romantic garden
Below the neoclassical level, the nineteenth-century addition winds streams, false ruins and deep shade into the hillside.
Practicalities
A small entry fee applies on most days, with free days each week and a daily visitor cap that keeps the place worth protecting.
