About

The Basilica of the Sagrada Família has witnessed many generations of Spaniards and has earned the honorable title of the world's most famous long-term construction project. Its construction has lasted for over a hundred years, but it was only recently that church services began to be held inside the basilica.

The reason for such a prolonged construction is architect Gaudí's desire to meticulously recreate the entire New Testament. Additionally, there is a legend which states that the completion of the work will mark the end of the world. The basilica exhibits all the features of the Gothic style, boasting 12 tall spires representing the apostles and one other spire that significantly surpasses the rest in size. The Sagrada Família is known to every tourist, as evidenced by its annual visitor count of over two million people.
