Barcelona's Sagrada Família: The Church That Never Ends

from Spanish Practices – Living in Spain: Real Life, Real Spain · host John Metson

What happened to the Sagrada Família after the death of Antoni Gaudí in 1926? In this episode of Spanish Practices, we follow the emotional story of two generations of builders in Barcelona — a young technical assistant who witnesses the destruction of Gaudí's workshop during the Spanish Civil War, and his son who helps rebuild the dream decades later. A moving, human story about patience, genius, and the ordinary people who spent a lifetime finishing one of the most extraordinary churches in the world.
