Designed by the great Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi, construction of this awesome church began in 1882, and it’s still not complete. Construction is expected to finally come to an end in 15 - 20 years.
You might forget the architectural details of the
Barcelona apartments that you’ve previously stayed in, but you’ll never forget the Sagrada Familia. It’s not only the city’s top tourist attraction, it’s one of Spain’s most famous and treasured landmarks.
You might even be able to see its magnificent, sculpture-encrusted spires soaring into the sky from the windows of your
Barcelona apartment; but up close, it will surely take your breath away. It is, quite simply, swooningly beautiful, both inside and out.
To get there, simply make your way from your
Barcelona apartment to the Sagrada Familia underground rail station. Admission is €16.80 for general entrance. The Cathedral opens between 9.00am - 6.00pm from October to March, and between 9.00am and 8.00pm from April to September. Full information is available on the official website at: www.sagradafamilia.org
The trip is made all the more worthwhile knowing that you’ll be in a city which is full of fabulous examples of gothic architecture; a city crammed with bars, clubs and restaurants - a city that pulsates with life and energy.
So make your stay in a Barcelona apartment unforgettable with a visit to La Sagrada Familia - and you may well find yourself planning another few days in our Barcelona apartments as a result.
Staying in one of our
Barcelona apartments locates you in one of the most cosmopolitan cities in Europe, with quite possibly the busiest port in the Mediterranean.
Whichever one of our Barcelona apartments you decide to stay in, your trip will be incomplete without a visit to the spectacular, if slightly bizarre, Sagrada Familia.
Buy your La Sagrada Familia tickets online in advance, to avoid queuing when you get there.
