THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOUR VISIT TO SAGRADA FAMILIA
The Sagrada Familia, an architectural gem in Barcelona, kicked off its construction journey in 1882, thanks to the visionary Antoni Gaudí. This place is a fascinating blend of Gothic and Modernist vibes, creating a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
Gaudí poured more than 40 years of his life into the Sagrada Familia, infusing it with his deep devotion and artistic flair. The church boasts three façades that tell the stories of Jesus’s birth, passion, and glory, while the interior will leave you in awe with its forest-like columns.
On November 7, 2010, Pope Benedict XVI gave it the title of “Minor Basilica”, and although it’s still a work in progress after 140 years, the Sagrada Familia continues to stand as a shining example of Gaudí’s genius. It’s a place that never fails to inspire and captivate visitors, solidifying its status as Barcelona’s iconic monument.

Frequently Asked Questions
The amount of time you wish to dedicate to Sagrada Familia is entirely up to you! Typically, our tours run for about 90 minutes. Nevertheless, following the guided tour, you are free to stay at the temple, capturing more photos or simply reveling in its exquisite allure.
We highly recommend that one of your first steps after finalizing your travel dates, is to secure your Sagrada Familia tickets as they sell out quickly. If you plan on going independently, get your tickets several weeks ahead of your visit. On the other hand, if you are interested in joining a guided tour, you will often find tickets available for same-day bookings.
Keep in mind that the Sagrada Familia experiences its busiest period during the summer months in Barcelona (June to September).
Getting tickets for the Sagrada Familia can be a bit tricky because they sell out fast on the official website. But here is the good news – you can opt for a guided tour that includes tickets. This is a smart and safe option to secure your tickets, even if it is on short notice. At Julià Travel, we offer Sagrada Familia Tours, usually, with last-minute availability, so you are unlikely to run out of tickets if you book with us.
Visiting the Sagrada Familia towers offers unique panoramic views of Barcelona, and while there is an additional fee and some physical effort involved in climbing narrow staircases, the experience is absolutely rewarding. It provides a distinctive perspective of Antoni Gaudi´s masterpiece and a chance to see the city from above.
However, if mobility or heights are concerns, admiring the beauty of the basilica from the ground offers a more accessible yet still fulfilling experience.
Sagrada Familia is a Catholic temple, so it is important to adhere to a respectful dress code. To enter, visitors are required to avoid wearing shorts, skirts or pants above the knees, hats, sandals, open flip-flops, bathing suits, sleeveless shirts, low-cut necklines, backless tops, see-through garments, strapless attire, or clothing with offensive or promotional designs. These guidelines apply to both adults and children.
Since the Sagrada Familia is such a popular spot in Barcelona, it is almost always bustling with visitors. However, you might want to consider visiting during the quieter hours of 13:00 to 16:00, typically during lunchtime, when the crowds tend to thin out a bit.
Nevertheless, when you opt for a guided tour, you will have a knowledgeable guide who can help you find the best times to really soak in and understand this amazing architectural gem.
Due to the consistently high number of visitors at the Sagrada Familia, waiting in line is pretty much the norm. But there is a handy "fast track" ticket (formerly called skip the line) that can make your entry much quicker. With this ticket, you won´t have to stand in the regular entrance line like everyone else
