SAGRADA FAMÍLIA CHURCH - Western Med Cruise
Barcelona, the cosmopolitan capital of Spain’s Catalonia region, is known for art and architecture.
The undisputed icon of Barcelona...
The Sagrada Familia, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a special moment of the trip as we are about to discover an international symbol of architecture as well as Gaudí’s most famous work.
The Basilica of the Sagrada Familia is a monumental church devoted to the Holy Family: Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Construction began in 1882, based on plans drawn up by the architect Francisco de Paula del Villar, and Antoni Gaudi was commissioned to continue the project in 1883. The Temple has always been an expiatory church, built only from donations. As Gaudi said: "The Expiatory Church of the Sagrada Familia is made by the people and is mirrored in them. It is a work that is in the hands of God and the will of the people.
