Notes as of publishing:
Construction on La Sagrada Familia will not be completed in 2026 due to the delays of the Covid shutdown. The final completion date has not been announced.

Since our visit a giant 12 pointed illuminated star has been hoisted atop the tower of the Virgin Mary. The new height is 452 feet and it is the first tower since 1976 to be completed! The final towers will be going into place over the next several years and the Barcelona skyline will be forever changed. Imagine, no more cranes!

December 8, 2021 is the inauguration date for the tower and star lighting. The 800 blue and white stained glass windows in the new tower are representative of Mary's cloak.

When completed the La Sagrada Familia will be Europe's tallest religious building.
