The iconic symbols of Antoni Gaudi, the Chimneys of Casa Mila La Pedrera Barcelona Catalonia Spain


The Templo expiatorio de la Sagrada Família (Spanish, "Expiatory Temple of the Holy Family"), often simply called the Sagrada Familia, is a massive Roman Catholic church under construction in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Construction began in 1882 and continues to this day. Originally designed by Antoni Gaudí (1852 – 1926), who worked on the project for over 40 years, devoting the last 15 years of his life entirely to the endeavor, the project is scheduled to be completed in 2026. On the subject of the extremely long construction period, Gaudí is said to have remarked, "My client is not in a hurry." After Gaudí's death in 1926, work continued under the direction of Domènech Sugranyes until interrupted by the Spanish Civil War in 1936
