We visited the Basilica on April, 18, 2022.

On March, 19, 1882 construction of the Sagrada Familia began under Architect, Francisco de Paula Del Villar. In 1843 when Villar resigned, Gaudí took over as Chief Architect, combining Gothic & Curvilinear Art Nouveau forms. Gaudí devoted the remainder of his life to the project and is buried in the crypt. At the time of his death in 1926, less than a quarter of the project was complete.

Mr. Joseph Battló granted full creative freedom to Antoni Gaudí between 1904 – 1906 to demolish the above property or restore. Gaudí completely changed the façade and converted the inside into a true work of art. This property is now a World Heritage Site.
