The marriage of Román Batlle and Enriqueta Rodríguez de Lacín commissioned the architect Salvador Comas and the builder Pedro Pareras to construct this modernist villa.
The house came to be known as «Vil·la Enriqueta» and was inhabited by the owners as a summer residence. The property «Vil·la Enriqueta» was acquired by Eduardo Moret Abelló and Teresa Ros Riera, who developed and designed the botanical garden and changed the name of the property to «Torre Edelweiss.»
