Description The Baslica i Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Famlia (English: Basilica and Expiatory Church of the Holy Family) is the largest unfinished Roman Catholic church in the world and is located in Barcelona, designed by Catalan architect Antonio Gaud (18521926). Gaud's work on the building is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and in November 2010 Pope Benedict XVI consecrated and proclaimed it a minor basilica, as distinct from a cathedral, which must be the seat of a bishop.In 1882, construction of Sagrada Famlia started under architect Francisco Paula de Villar. In 1883, when Villar resigned, Gaud took over as chief architect, transforming the project with his architectural and engineering style, combining Gothic and curvilinear Art Nouveau forms. Gaud devoted the remainder of his life to the project, and at the time of his death at age 73 in 1926, less than a quarter of the project was complete. It is now scheduled to be completed in 2026, the 100th anniversary of Gaudi's death. This is just a small portion of the exterior. Original photo.
