I don’t understand. Can u translate English please
Well, in fact in began in 1882, so it is 141 years, not 500
500 years?! 0.0
Uh.. Where did you get 500 years from?.. It started in 1882 not in the middle ages lmao, it’s also almost completed, expected to be finished in 2026.. Why spread missinformation?

Lazy people on that side of the country, imagine taking 141 years in todays age to build a building , chinese people are building 1,000 bed hospitals in 10 days LOLOLOLOL
It is not 500 years, but still, then they said the lazy people are in the south, but every cathedral is finished there!
So Gaudi was 400+ years old when he died? O.0
I honestly don’t understand why la sagrada familia gets this bad rep.
First off construction has been going on for a bit less than 150 years (not 500), second It’s almost finished and third …It’s not unusual.
Cologne Cathedral took 632 years to complete. Milan’s Cathedral was **continuosly** built across 579 years. A quick search in Google rends that most Cathedrals took at the very least 50 years to complete.
It’s darn big and very complex and made of Stone. Of course It takes time. When finished It will be the tallest church in the world, taking the place of a gothic church finished in 1890.
500 years seems a lil’ off m8
Sure 1523-2023. It was originally a church to celebrate the designation of Clemens PP. VII but as he died 11 years later the work stopped. /S
Math doesn’t check out
With all respect, you have a minuscule understanding of architecture in Europe 1500-2000, and same about religious buildings.
In every sense, from materials to design, to the atoning or “expiatory” goal, it has been a fin-de-siècle (turn of the century, 1900) project, later captured along the 20th century by competing locals with an agenda of their own, claimed loudly to be somehow connected to Gaudi’s plans -unlike their rivals’ :-D. Loud is a pertinent word, indeed.

Best.
So is it finished or still under construction?
Proquèdiuuus?
Not even AI can finish that building.
Am I the only one getting the joke?
