La Sagrada Familia
It is the largest unfinished Catholic church in the world. Designed by Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926). La Sagrada Familia is a building that Gaudí masterfully designed and, despite not being finished, UNESCO made it a World Heritage Site in 1984 because of its unique architecture and how Gaudí created something so artistic and innovative. La Sagrada Familia construction began in 1882 and is still ongoing today. The last remaining tower, representing Christ, is expected to be completed in 2026. Gaudi is known for getting inspired by Nature, his buildings having numerous nods to nature’s bounty. The interiors of Sagrada Familia are designed to represent Nature, with columns as trees and various creatures hidden throughout the basilica. Only two people are buried there – its architect, Antoni Gaudi, and the man who started it all, Bocobella.
