And today, on the centenary of GaudÃ's death (10 June 1926), the central tower is to be inaugurated (it was actually topped out on 20 Feb)

Today La Sagrada FamÃlia is having the first part of the crowning cross of the Jesus Tower installed. This will finally take it past Ulm Minster's 161.5 metres (begun 1392, completed with octagon and spire 1885-90) as the tallest church in the world!

the pope's there and everything!
surreal to see all the clerics with their phones out
Giving it a good asperging
for anyone not following along at home they are up to the Agnus Dei now
Live view of the basilica awaiting dedication from in front of the Nativity Facade
this is all going a bit marvel movie blue laser shooting into the sky now
