Basílica de la Sagrada Família

The most famous of all Gaudi’s works has been under construction since 1882. The famed architect took over the construction of the Sagrada Familia (Spanish for “Holy Family”) one year later but he didn’t live to see his masterpiece completed.

In fact, less than one-third of the church was completed by the time of his death in 1926. It is scheduled to be finally completed on the 100th anniversary of the architect’s death in 2026. In 2005, the Sagrada Familia was declared a World Heritage Site.
