2026 We are constructing for tomorrow
The Video produced by The Sagrada Família shows how the Temple of the Sagrada Família will look like once work has been completed. Entitled "2026 We are constructing for tomorrow", the 90-second video provides a virtual, bird´s-eye view of the yet-to-be-built elements rising into the air and how the building will look when completed.
The finalisation of construction work is planned for 2026 to mark the centenary of the death of its architect, Antoni Gaudí.
