The iconic Spanish landmark offering 20,000 free tickets in September

0


Construction began in March 1882. In 2005, Gaudi’s work on the basilica was added to an existing UNESCO World Heritage Site, “Works of Antoni Gaudi”. Relying solely on private donations, Sagrada Família’s construction progressed slowly and was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War. The schedule was also recently slowed as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Visitors will be free to tour the basilica and learn about the work being done to complete the Jesus Christ tower, which will become the highest point of the building when it is completed.

A fragment of the prototype of the cross used to crown the tower will be shown to the public for the first time.

Every year, the Sagrada Familia, probably the most iconic landmark in Barcelona, attracts 3.2 million visitors every year, making it Spain’s most visited monument.

In order to claim a free ticket, visitors are required to sign up for a draw – the form to register interest closes on September 16 and is available on the Sagrada Familia’s official website.
