La Sagrada Familia Vacation Packages


La Sagrada Familia Vacations

Free and guided tours of El Temple de la Sagrada Familia Based on building techniques available in the early 1900s, it was once thought that construction would take several hundred years! Many of the stones of the temple are shaped differently than the next, and must be sent off-site to be shaped accurately. That might seem like a long time, but Gaudi meant for La Sagrada to be quite unique. The estimated completion date of the Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia is approximately 2026, which will mark the 100th anniversary of Gaudi’s death.

However, the builders committed to finishing this great work are determined to see it to the end. Wars and anarchists have delayed the temple’s construction. Some of the original ideas of Gaudi have been modified with the passage of time. La Sagrada is filled with Christian symbolism, with detailed sculptures and majestic spires adorning the facility.

Construction on the temple began in 1881, and architect Antoni Gaudi dedicated several years of his life to making the Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia the “last great sanctuary of Christendom.” It is one of Gaudi’s most famous works in Barcelona. La Sagrada Familia is dedicated to the Holy Family. La Sagrada Familia is constantly evolving into a more stunning masterpiece. The landmark is one of the most popular attractions in Spain, though its construction has taken more than 100 years and is still underway today. To see a fantastic work in progress in Barcelona Spain, visit La Sagrada Familia, formally known as Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia.
