Architecture1882
Sagrada Família
Antoni Gaudí
Gaudí's unfinished basilica in Barcelona — a century-long project that fuses Gothic structure with organic form into the most visited monument in Spain.
About this work
Construction began in 1882 and is projected to complete in 2026 — 100 years after Gaudí's death. The basilica's 18 towers, its stone forests of branching columns, and its facades covered in densely symbolic sculpture represent the fullest expression of Catalan Modernisme and one of the most ambitious architectural projects in history.
