Torre de Cal Bassacs is a historicist and Catalan modernist house and chapel designed by Alexandre Soler i March in Colònia Bassacs, Gironella, Spain. The building demonstrates the decorative richness characteristic of early twentieth-century Catalan modernism through its use of trencadís (broken ceramic tile mosaic), roof tile, ceramic, and stone. Recognized as a Cultural Asset of Catalonian heritage, the structure reflects the period's ambitious domestic architecture and the artisanal craftsmanship that defined the style.
