ALL ABOUT LA SAGRADA FAMILIA INSIDE
If there is one MUST-SEE place in town, that’s definitely the Sagrada Familia church. Started in 1882 by the architect Francesc de Paula i Villar, Gaudi took over the project a year later and transformed it into his masterpiece, his passion and obsession. It won’t be finished until 2026-30 (approx.), but the inside was finally completed, freed of scaffolding and consecrated by Pope Benedict in 2010.
Before the completion of the inside naves in 2010 many people were content to just see it from outside and spare the cost of the tickets. But after that, the Barcelona Sagrada Familia interior has become a must: if there’s one site where you need to spend your money, this is the Sagrada Familia church. In this post we’ll go point by point explaining what entails visiting inside La Sagrada Familia, so you don’t miss anything, and giving a special focus on the best part of the visit: the actual interior of the church. But in case you aren’t sure yet about going in, let’s get your doubts out of the way once and for all:
Is Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia inside worth it?
Yes, going inside Sagrada Familia is totally worth it! If you don’t, you’ll regret it the rest of your life. It’s a church like no other church you’ve seen it. It’s the largest basilica in Spain… and the second in the world (after the Basilica of Saint Peter in the Vatican). And the combination of engineering and beauty will blow your mind.
The best way to enjoy it is taking a private Sagrada Familia tour: you get to skip lines and you have an expert tour guide 100% dedicated to you, your interests and questions. No sharing with other people (that might be annoying). But if you prefer to go on your own, make sure to buy your tickets in advance. After the pandemic they eliminated their physical ticket offices and purchasing them online is the only option. Plus they typically sell out days (or even weeks) in advance. You’ve been warned.
And now that you have any doubts out of the way, let’s see what awaits you inside!
