🇪🇸 Barcelone La Sagrada Familia et les œuvres principales de Gaudí

Hi everyone so today I’m going to tell you about one of my first road trips where I headed to Barcelona and I visited the Sagrada Familia le campenou and of course Gaudi’s uves so let’s start with the Sagrada Familia and I can tell you that it is

The most visited monument in Spain and remains inseparable from the Barcelona panorama. This basilica with its unique architecture is a true V d’Ar. 5 generations of Barcelonans have witnessed the evolution of This impressive project born in the mind of the famous Catalan architect Anthony Gaudi, current construction managers

Would hope to have completed it in 2026 for the centenary of Gaudi’s death, but the cessation of work during the pandemic has made this objective difficult to achieve. [Music] it was in 1881 that a certain Joseph Maria Bocabella decided to acquire land in order to build

An expiatory church, excuse me for intervening but what does expiatory mean, that is to say fully financed by the omon of the faithful who paid homage to the Holy Family the Sagrada Familia of Saint Joseph the Virgin Mary and Jesus the project was entrusted to the architect Anthony Gaudi

Who imagined an imposing temple made up of 5 n and 18 towers 12 for represent the apostles 4 for the evangelists one for the Virgin Mary and finally the highest tower in the center to symbolize Jesus Christ this work designed by gaodi is filled with religious and

Mystical references as well as elements inspired by nature the three facades of the temple symbolizes three stages of the life of Christ the Nativity the passion and the glory the facade of the Nativity and the crypt of the basilica built during the lifetime of Gaudi F recognized heritage of humanity by

UNESCO for their unique architecture and for reward the creativity and innovation of this construction the construction of the Sagrada Familia was the most important project for the modernist architect although gaodi was responsible for many other constructions he dedicated the

Last 12 years of his life exclusively to the church for the Holy Family aware that to carry out such a project many years are necessary Gaudi therefore sets up a construction in phases in a vertical manner with an entire facade instead of a

Classic horizontal construction and when he was asked when this imposing sanctuary would be finished, the architect would have replied that his client God was in no hurry, speaking precisely of the time limit for the construction of the temple, this is explained by different reasons, on the one hand by the project

Itself ambitious and innovative and on the other hand by various historical events the complexity of construction comes from its height the basilica in fact should reach 172 m high once completed and the fact that the Church does not have any straight line in its interior in fact gaodi

Would consider that the straight line was linked to man while the curves came from God during the civil war gaodi’s plans disappeared in a fire and the progress of the work was slowed down during this period in addition to the Sagrada construction site Familia is financed exclusively by donations and by visitors’ entries

As I mentioned to you and in 2020 as everyone knows the exceptional closure of the temple caused a shortfall and a new delay in the work, the Sagrada Familia becomes a increasingly popular monument with increasing attendance since 1992 the first architect to work on the Sagrada Familia project is Francisco DEPA

Tel Villard il laano he imagines a church with a neolithic style site aiming to revive medieval forms which contrast with the dominant classical style of the time in 198 after numerous disagreements between Francisco DEA and Bishop Gaodi then 31 years old is recommended by his predecessor in order to bring a more

Ambitious vision [Music] the dimensions imposed by Gaudi for this structure are 4500 m because 120 m long with a gigantic nave that can accommodate 14,000 people in 1885 Anthony Gaudi inaugurates the crypt the Construction team consisted only 8 men work 10 stonecutters 12 sculptors and

Carpenters it is with the complexity of such a grandiose project that gaodi ends up understanding that he would never see the Sagrada Familia completed in his lifetime he had the near certainty that the The immensity of his project would be abandoned upon his death, this is the reason why the workers began

Work on the Nativity facade 6 years later for the tragic end of Gaudi, he was fatally run over by a tram on June 10, 1926. was buried in the crypt of the chapel and therefore for 10 years his assistant continued the unfinished work with the finalization of the

Three towers allowing to complete the facade of the [Music] Nativity on July 10, 1936 anticlericals set fire to Gaoui’s workshop where all its plans, a draft model, were preserved, everything was destroyed, no document remained allowing the work to be completed, the work was resumed under

The direction of the French architect Quintana Joseph Maria Subrac brought in 1986 a new contemporary style to the status of the Sagraada Familia that we can find on the facade of the Nativity of gaodi here you know almost everything about the Sagrada Familia all the

Important dates and you have noticed that several architects succeeded one another in the realization of this work the end of the work is planned for 2026 as I had to say at one point and in order to celebrate the centenary of the death of Anthony Gaudi nevertheless the finishing touches will CER extend

Until 2032 if you want to visit the Sagrada Familia book well in advance because the visits are limited and there is a time entry quota is defined in advance you will of course have to respect your arrival time this is neither modifiable nor [Music] refundable

On the facade of passion you can also find a magic square so it is a square which was created once again bysubac this magic frame has the particularity of arriving at the number 33 when you add each line whether horizontally vertical

Or even diagonally well of course the number 33 is none other than the supposed age of the execution of Christ but many other combinations also make it possible to arrive at the number 33 the number 3 was not chosen at random either because in the world Christian it is the symbol of the

Trinity elsewhere there was what else I am also waiting for the visit of the newamp I also went to visit the Casa Vicens which is one of the first major monuments of the architect Gaudi the work

Is took place between 1883 and 1885 and this modernist building is located in the district of Gracia let’s continue our tour in Barcelona at Casa [Music] Batel then I can tell you that this building was built in 1877 and it was bought by Joseph batl in 1903 and 1904 batl

Hired gaodi to finish it we also have Casa Mila which is ironically nicknamed La Pedrera in fact La Pedrera means the stone quarry in Catalan run between 1906 and 1910 we must not forget the gel park which was built between 1900 and 1914 it was

The architects José Antonio Martinez Lapena and Elias Torres who restored it from 1984 to 1993 last element visit for my part the camp us so it is located of course in Barcelona in the district of Les Corts and FC Barcelona we have been the resident club since its inauguration

We also find small chapels to pray before the match and so I was also in these small chapels and at the edge of the pitch as well as the locker rooms and the substitutes ‘ bench the capacity of this stadium is exactly 99,354 people its height is

48 m and the opening date of the site was set for September 24, 1957 at that time I did not yet have my truck so I had a Renault 19 and I made the trip entirely with the Renault 19 and slept in a few campsites and uh a small apartment in

[Music] Barcelona so here I am not particularly a supporter of any football team but I like the game so I watch a little football from time to time and then I stop especially in relation to the architecture of this stadium which really remains

Impressive and so that’s what I wanted to see as a priority. I hope you liked this little video and that I showed you a little bit of what to go see in Barcelona afterwards, I haven’t yet seen everything uh I even plan to go back see you soon [ Music]
