La Sagrada Familia by Beckett Turner

When we were in Barcelona, we went to one of it's most famous sights called La Sagrada Familia!  La Sagrada Familia (means The Sacred Family) is a big Basilica. A Basilica is a church in Spain. It was designed by a Antonio Gaudi. Antonio Gaudi was able to finish designing it, but did not get to see the whole building built because he got hit by a train in 1926.  Now In 2014 they are still trying hard to finish Gaudi's Sagrada Familia!

It was colorful, there were lots of high towers and he also tried to make it look like nature on the  inside. The columns looked like trees. It was probable the most unique building i've ever seen.

Gaudi designed a schoolhouse for the children of the workers so that they could go to school!  This is us at one of the desks!
