Sagrada Família
Gaudí's unfinished church
Sagrada Família is a massive Roman Catholic basilica in Barcelona, Spain, designed by architect Antoni Gaudí.
Construction began in 1882 and remains unfinished.
The church is renowned for its distinctive organic forms, towering spires, and elaborate sculptural facades—a landmark of modernist architecture and Spain's most visited monument: We spent hours exploring the Sagrada Família.
