La Sagrada Familia
1. August 2021 in Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 68 °F
The Basílica de la Sagrada Família (Basilica of the Holy Family) also known as the Sagrada Família, is a large unfinished Roman Catholic basilica. Designed by Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926), his work on the building is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On November 7th, 2010, Pope Benedict XVI consecrated the church and proclaimed it a minor basilica.
It completely blew us away when we first visited it in November 2019.
No matter how many photos, videos, etc. one can take - it simply does not do the place justice! As I have been telling folks the 1st thing that flashed through my mind upon entering it was "Thine be the Glory"Weiterlesen

Portal de Santa Madrona
1. August 2021 in Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 73 °F
The only surviving gateway in the mediaeval wall from the 14th-century city.This gate that led into Barcelona is also the most privileged entryway to the current Baluard de les Drassanes or Baluard de Santa Madrona, a bastion which was added in the 18th century.

Jardines del Baluard - Little park & gardens with a wide walking path & remnants of a historic city wall & gate. They usually are closed to the public and we were fortunate enough to come here on a 1st Sunday of the month - one of the rare occastions when they are openWeiterlesen

Aduana (Customs)
1. August 2021 in Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 73 °F
This Neoclassical building in the Square of the Gate of Peace at Port Vell opened in 1902. Architects Enric Sagnier and Pere García did a masterful job of decorating the former custom house with Ionic columns, dentil molding and ornate windows. Above the reliefs of royal crowns and the crenels are sculptures of winged lions. The stone façade has a warm glow in the Barcelona sunshine. This building is called Aduana by some and the Duana Nova (New Customs House) by others.Weiterlesen

Plaça Reial
1. August 2021 in Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F
A Square in the Barri Gòtic next to Las Ramblas.
The original building on the site was the Capuchin convent of Santa Madrona, which was demolished in 1835. Plaça Reial was then designed by Francesc Daniel Molina i Casamajó later in the XIX9th century.

The square's lampposts were designed by Antoni Gaudí.Weiterlesen
