Sagrada Familia Church – A Masterpiece Of Madman Or Genius?

Sagrada Familia is a work that the greatest architect of Spain has exhausted his passion, creativity and energy for 42 years. Sagrada Familia Church - masterpiece of madman or genius? Head of the Faculty of Architecture University of Barcelona, Spain, looking at the thesis and before signing the diploma of the young student Antoni Gaudi, asked: “Who am I issuing the degree to, a crazy Or genius? ”. Gaudi, the number one architectural genius of Spain and Europe, quietly answered the teacher's questions with many works. One of them is a masterpiece called Sagrada Familia. The Magrada Familia is a major Catholic church in the Catalan region, a famous symbol of Spain with the architecture combining traditional Gothic and modern Art Nouveau

. Many people believe that Art Nouveau's style (denying straight lines, honoring curves) really suits Gaudi - a nature lover and likes to draw plants when he was a kid. One of the most distinctive features of the church are 18 spindle-shaped spiers, representing the 12 apostles, 4 evangelicals, Our Lady and the tallest tower, 170 m, is Jesus. At the top of the towers are traditional symbolic carvings: bull (Luke), phoenix (St John), lion (St.



Marco) and winged man (St. Matthew) or the figure of holy bread with A cluster of rice flowers, a chalice and a bunch of grapes, a symbol of the Eucharist ... Photo: Open Culture. Gaudi's wish is that the Sagrada Familia will become the church with the highest tower in the world. Currently, 8 bell towers have been completed The front of the church is decorated with many statues that recreate the life of God.



The inside of the church is illuminated by sunlight straight through the oval on the ceiling and the gorgeous stained-glass windows. According to Destinationsdetoursdreams, this is the work that the greatest architect in Spain has exhausted her passion, creativity and energy for 42 years. Gaudi spent 16 years perfecting the project. By 1926 the project was unfinished due to his sudden death in a train accident. In addition, the Sagrada Familia is famous for being the only church in the world with a long construction time, over a century. Construction started in 1882, and up to now, after 135 years, the church has not been completed. According to Gaudi's famous joke, he believed that his client, God, would not be too impatient and could wait. According to the Spanish government, this masterpiece will be completed in 2026, on the 100th anniversary of Gaudi's death.



The question of the chief architect of the Faculty of Architecture nearly 140 years ago has not been answered. No one knows whether Gaudi is crazy or not, but now everyone sees him as a genius. In 1984, the church was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. In 2007, it was listed on the list of 12 Spanish treasures. On November 7, 2010, the church was consecrated by Pope Benedictus XVI and raised to the basilica during his visit to Santiago de Compostela and Barcelona. Therefore, today, the Sagrada Familia is also known as the Basilica of the Holy Family Church. Today, the Sagrada Familia welcomes about 3 million visitors a year. The investment to continue to build the church is collected from the sale of sightseeing tickets to visitors.
