Ultimate Birthday Surprise!
Want to surprise your loved one?
The Sagrada FamÃlia is truly Amazing and very surreal to see, it’s something straight from a fairy tale.
Relying solely on private donations, the Sagrada FamÃlia's construction progressed slowly and was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War. In July 1936, revolutionaries set fire to the crypt and broke their way into the workshop, partially destroying GaudÃ's original plans, drawings and plaster models, which led to 16 years work to piece together the fragments of the master model. Construction resumed to intermittent progress in the 1950s. Advancements in technologies such as computer aided design and computerised numerical control (CNC) have since enabled faster progress and construction passed the midpoint in 2010. However, some of the project's greatest challenges remain, including the construction of ten more spires, each symbolising an important Biblical figure in the New Testament. It is anticipated that the building can be completed by 2026, the centenary of GaudÃ's death.
On 19 March 1882, construction of the Sagrada FamÃlia began under architect Francisco de Paula del Villar. In 1883, when Villar resigned, Gaudà took over as chief architect, transforming the project with his architectural and engineering style, combining Gothic and curvilinear Art Nouveau forms. Gaudà devoted the remainder of his life to the project, and he is buried in the crypt. At the time of his death in 1926, less than a quarter of the project was complete.
