"Turó de les tres creus" is the highest place of Park Güell in Barcelona. Antoni Gaudí wanted to place there a Chapel, but finally he built a stone construction with three crosses at the top. The place is named also The Calvary. In addition to this religious vision, the three crosses have a pagan simbolism: two of them indicate the cardinal points (N-S-E-W), and the other is pointing skyward.
