Gràcia's torretes date from the end of the 19th and start of the 20th centuries. They are an example of the family dwellings that typified the period of the area's growth.
Little by little, the farmhouses fell into disuse and their fields were urbanised. At the end of the 19th century, Gràcia was growing with two-storey family houses. This group of five houses gives you some idea of what they were like. Numbers 146 to 150 have large windows with bars that date from 1873, and number 152, with Catalan Art Nouveau decoration, is later, from 1910.
