Video: Sagrada Família to unveil crown atop Tower of Jesus Christ on Antoni Gaudí centenary

The iconic Sagrada Família in Barcelona is set to reach a historic milestone on June 10, 2026, marking 100 years since the death of architect Antoni Gaudí.

On that date, the basilica plans to inaugurate the four-armed cross that will crown the Tower of Jesus Christ, the tallest of its spires. Once completed, the structure is expected to become the world’s tallest church, completing a key symbolic stage in the long-running construction of Gaudí’s masterpiece.
