The monumental cathedral ‘El Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família’ is the Catalan architect's, Anton Gaudí, most famous work - the finest example of his visionary genius, and a world-wide icon for Barcelona.

 

Gaudí began work in 1883 on the site of a previous neo-Gothic project and dedicated the last years of his life to this monumental work, which continues today long after his death.


Today the Plaça de la Sagrada Família is one of Barcelona's biggest tourist attractions.
