La Sagrada Familia is the most famous sight in Barcelona. Designed by Antoni Gaudi, the Roman Catholic basilica is unfinished - despite the architect being commissioned for the job in 1883! Gaudi died in 1926 and work has continued on the building to this day. Officially, the magnificent building will be finished in 2026, one hundred years after Gaudi died.

The architectural design of the La Iglesia de Sagrada Familia pronounces Spain's architectural eloquence.
The external grid illustrates a rich blend of baroque, classical to the late Imperial-Enlightenment.
















The church will be able to accommodate 13,000 people. When finished, the La Iglesia de Sagrada Familia will have a total of 18 towers. Four Towers on each of the three facades represent the 12 apostles.
