The Sagrada Familia in Barcelona represents one of the most outstanding works of art in the world that fascinates for its architectural, artistic and religious qualities.
The basilica was designed by the famous Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí. Gaudí's vision for the Sagrada Familia was to create a unique and impressive space that will inspire visitors to feel closer to God. He created an innovative structure with a design based on the forms of nature.
The Sagrada Familia is "the Bible in stone", its 3 facades represent the phases of the life of Jesus: the Birth, the Passion and the Glory. Like the exterior, the interior has great religious significance. The central nave is divided into 3 spaces that are reflected in three "theological itineraries": the Way of Humanity, the Way of Jesus Christ and the Way of the Church.
The Sagrada Familia is also a symbol of Catalan identity and testimony to the city's rich artistic and architectural heritage. The church has witnessed many important events, including the visit of Pope Benedict XVI in 2010, who was amazed by the beauty of the building.
Due to its majestic presence and cultural and religious interest, the Sagrada Familia is Gaudi's magnum opus and the undisputed symbol of Barcelona!!!
