Sagrada Familia
At the end of the 19th century the Eixample, the central area of Barcelona, was laid out as a large grid with wide avenues. It was here that the emerging Catalan bourgeoisie had their mansions built, putting into practice the most audacious principles of Modernism.
The church of the Sagrada Familia is arguably the best of those Modernist constructions. Geometrical forms inspired by nature which form the nave and aisles, the columns, the windows, the vaults and the roofs, it represents the pinnacle of a unique architectural movement. An absolute must.
Our Concierge department will be very pleased to organize your site tour and transportation.
