Sagrada Familia's figurative "Currently Under Construction" sign surely must have quite the story to tell, having seen much of Barcelona and world history unfold before it since its inception in 1882.
After 144 years of construction, all should be complete come 2026. Hopefully.
This beautiful masterpiece of a Catholic church in Barcelona, designed by Catalan architect
Antoni Gaudi, towers over Barcelona, piercing its skyline.
That fact that Sagrada Familia is visible from all around various part of Barcelona, it serves as a constant reminder of the city's heritage, foundation and artistic and architectural mastery as exhibited by its (most) famous architect, Gaudi and his impact on the makeup of the city (as seen in Sagrada Familia, Parc Guell, Casa Batllo and La Pedrera).
